Made in Britain by Colgate Palmolive, this Pithead Bath tablet is a no-nonsense carbolic soap and a rare survivor of our national mining heritage. Embossed with PHB (for Pithead Baths) these original 1970s tablets were used in collieries across the country - a pocket sized symbol of the health and welfare benefits the baths provided.

All the proceeds from this item directly fund the Miners' Modernism research project, led by Twentieth Century Society and Queens University Belfast.
