PROVISIONAL SPECIFICATION.
Improved Method of Making up Bars and Tablets of Soap for the
Purpose of Advertizing, said Soap Tablets being made Buoyant
or otherwise.
I, ALFRED ERNEST WEBB, of 188 Southgate Road, Middlesex, Engineer, do
hereby declare the nature of this invention to be as follows:-
This invention relates to a novel method of preparing bars and tablets of soap in
order that a system of advertizing the maker's name, trade mark, qualities of soap
and other goods manufactured or sold by said soap maker, or by others to whom the
soap is supplied, whether in bar or in tablet form.
In conjunction with the system of advertizing as above set forth, I purpose lining
the soap bar or tablet with a hollow vessel on to which by stamping or otherwise,
the desired indication can be arranged, or said vessel may contain labels, cards, or
other means of advertizing, which when the soap is used up can be examined by
opening the vessel. The soap thus prepared as a bar or tablet may be buoyant, so
as to float at or near the surface of the water.
The soap bars can be so shaped, or made up that when cut up into pieces, each
piece has its own vessel or advertizing medium within it.
Dated this 16th day of November 1889.
