The Graphic Newspaper/Magazine June 1st 1897, Queens Victoria's Diamond Jubilee. Advertisement for Brookes soap. Monkey Brand soap was introduced in the 1880s as a household scouring and polishing soap, in cake/bar form.[1] A firm owned by Sidney and Henry Gross, had produced and sold the soap in Philadelphia, USA. The soap's highly abrasive[2] agent was pumice.[3] Lever Brothers bought the company in 1899[4] and transferred the production of Monkey Brand soap to Port Sunlight. The name ‘Benjamin Brooke' (hence Brooke's Monkey Brand) was used to promote the Monkey Brand soap both in the States and in Britain.
