EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative postcard, dating back to circa 1908, showcases a patriotic advertisement for Gossages Soap. The image captures the spirit of the time with its depiction of naval scenes, reflecting the national pride and maritime heritage that was prevalent during the reign of King Edward VII. The monarch himself is depicted in regal attire, seated on a throne-like chair, surrounded by members of the Royal Family. Naval vessels and sailors can be seen in the background, paying homage to the British Navy's dominance on the high seas. The use of red, white, and blue colors in the design further emphasizes the patriotic theme. The advertisement for Gossages Soap is subtly incorporated into the image, with the product's logo and tagline, "Gossages Soap - The Best," visible in the bottom left corner. This postcard is an intriguing snapshot of the past, offering a glimpse into the patriotic sentiments and advertising techniques of the early 20th century.
