Lux soap is now a global brand developed by Unilever, but it started as 'Sunlight Flakes' laundry soap in 1899. A year later, the name changed to 'Lux', the Latin word for 'light' and suggestive of 'luxury'. In 1925, it became the first mass-market toilet soap in the world. Since then, the brand concentrated on building its association with the increasingly popular film world, focusing more on film stars and their roles rather than on the product. In 1929, advertising featured 26 of the biggest female stars of the day, creating a huge impact among the filmgoers. Another example is this series of German film star collectors cards, produced in the 1950s with stars of the German cinema. These collectors cards have a printed autograph and are a bit smaller than normal postcards.
