The clean, chivalrous fighting instincts of our gallant soldiers reflect
the ideals of our busmess hfe. The same characteristics which
stamp the British Tommy as the cleanest fighter in the world have
won equal repute for British goods.
Sunhght Soap IS tYPIcally BrItish. It IS acknowledged by experts ' to represent
the hIghest standard of Soap Quality and Efflclency. Tommy welcomes it in
the trenches just as you welcome It at home.
