Cleaver''s Soap (circa 1910) - 58 x 79 inches HUGE AND FABULOUS! ''It''s not all that often that one comes across a soap poster deserving of a rim shot, but the clever wordplay on display in this exceptional 4-sheet design definitely qualifies. Though it''s very likely that an additional text sheet may be missing from the poster;s far bottom - a sheet which may carry the quippy narrative even further - the tragicomic visuals that appear are definitely worth one''s attention, from the sinking shooner in the distance to the shipwrecked, yet poised and spic-and-span maiden in the foreground. And what soap could deliver such pristine lovely results? Why Cleaver''s, of course.'' (Rennert) Research indicates that Cleaver''s was probably made with a plant from the madder family, called Galium apparine, which has hooked bristles on the stem and leaves, and very fine white flowers. Listen, if it saved her from being ship-wrecked, maybe it would work for you too? We LOVE this poster - it''s enormous, it''s in great A condition (there is a tiny flake off on of her knees which we have taken a picture of, but it''s teeny tiny and we did it just for the purposes of being diligent), and it''s just a little wacky...
