This is believed to be the one 
                              and only original half tone litho advertisement 
                              negative that was used to create the famed Vinolia 
                              Otto Toilet Soap ad. The ad was published only once, 
                              in the April 6, 1912 edition of the London Illustrated 
                              News just days before the sinking. 
                            
Vinolia Otto Toilet Soap was provided 
                              for First Class passengers on the maiden voyage 
                              of the Titanic. The rare original newspaper ad is 
                              considered a valued piece of history and highly 
                              desired by many Titanic collectors. The popular 
                              ad is frequently used in modern reproductions and 
                              can be found in the traditional b&W version 
                              or a smaller hand painted variation that usually 
                              claims it is a copy of a vintage sign or ad. This 
                              ad was never printed in color or in a variation 
                              different from the original shown. 
                            
This piece has been thoroughly 
                              inspected by a respected photography expert and 
                              deemed a vintage time-era authentic negative. It 
                              is a one of a kind museum quality "find" 
                              direct from the British print company who created 
                              the etching, thought to be forever lost in time.
