Original vintage Persil High-Active washing powder demonstration sample, dating to the late 1940s–early 1950s. Produced for in-store and home demonstrations during the early adoption of domestic washing machines, this smaller-format sample features classic mid-century Persil branding, bold typography, and period illustration promoting “washes even whiter”. This example is unopened and retains its full original contents. Demonstration samples are less commonly found than standard retail boxes and were not intended for long-term preservation, making surviving unopened examples increasingly scarce. A strong piece for collectors of British advertising, laundry packaging, or for film, television, and interior display use.
