Confidence in Purity!

An Edwardian enamelled metal advertisement outside the Co-operative grocery store in Beamish Museum proclaims that the makers of "Sunlight" soap will give £1,000 (about £70,000 in today's money) to anyone who can prove that the soap "...contains any form of adulteration whatsoever or contains any injurious chemicals".
