    I started lathering soap with a brush around 1975 or 6. Did it purely because I'm cheap and I like all things retro. My Dad used canned cream, and so did I up until that time, so my knowledge of old soaps is limited.
    I bought an Old Spice mug with soap included. When that was used up, I couldn't find Old Spice refills anymore, and Williams fit fairly well, so that was it. Even the barber had a machine that instantly produced lather, so my view of the world was rather limited.
    I've found some old Williams pucks, and it is rather nice... beyond that I have tried nothing.
    I wonder how the performance of a 50 year old puck compares to when it was new? In any case, I don't have the room just for collectibles, so if I buy it, I'm usin' it!

    But, the old soaps are interesting, and I enjoy seeing and reading about them!
