ABC WEDNESDAY - "P" is for "packaging"
This is a bar of children's or baby soap. I bought these as small presents for people years ago when I first visited what was then Yugoslavia, thinking I'd never return. The packaging hasn't changed one bit.
Bibi, Pavlovićeva mast, now that is a classic that non of us have gone without in this country. I do not know if you have the picture but it sure is a classic, since 1947 made by a pediatrician after WWII. Mothers still use it.

The best soap. The smell of it is screaming "Childhood!!".
The best soap ever recommended by pediatricians. I still use it!
This is so cool Bibi!
Well this packaging so so "cute". Great P word.

inconnu comme marque, mais j'aime bien ce package vintage
it looks so cute.. and based on the comments, would love to get some for myself a few of these bars..
It's very nice. And isn't it also nice to have something that hasn't changed in the midst of constant change?
Don't see packaging like this anymore. Good thing you have found this very pretty.

... and they are probably very good soaps too...
The art work on the package looks like something from the 1940s.
Lovely packaging, gotta love a good bar of soap :)
P is for...
and why should it change...it's perfect as it is.
if it ain't broken ...
OH, talk about a walk down memory lane! I loved this soap as a kid and loved the picture too.
