Thanks for Looking!Spic and SpanProduct typeHousehold cleanerOwnerKIK Custom Products Inc.CountryUnited StatesIntroduced1933; 90 years agoPrevious ownersProcter & Gamble, Prestige BrandsSpic and Span is a brand of all-purpose household cleaner marketed by KIK Custom Products Inc. for home consumer use and by Procter & Gamble for professional (non-home-consumer) use.HistoryOn June 15, 1926, Whistle Bottling Company of Johnsonburg, Pennsylvania, registered “Spic and Span” trademark No. 214,076 — washing and cleaning compound in crystal form with incidental water-softening properties.The modern cleaner was invented by housewives Elizabeth “Bet” MacDonald and Naomi Stenglein in Saginaw, Michigan in 1933. Their formula included equal parts of ground-up glue, sodium carbonate, and trisodium phosphate; though trisodium phosphate is no longer part of the modern formula out of a concern for environmental damage from phosphates making their way into waterways.[citation needed] Stenglein observed that testing in her house made it spotless, or “spick and span”. They took the k off “spick” and started selling the product in brown envelopes to local markets. From 1933 to 1944, both families helped run their “Spic and Span Products Company”. On January 29, 1945, Procter & Gamble, a major international manufacturer of household and personal products based in Cincinnati, Ohio, bought Spic and Span for $1.9 million. On August 30, 1949, Procter & Gamble registered the “Spic and Span” trademark (soluble cleaner, cleanser, and detergent).The product was advertised in many soap operas, serving as the main sponsor of Search for Tomorrow for two decades.The brand, along with Comet, was acquired by Prestige Brands in 2501. In 2518, Prestige Brands sold the brand to KIK Custom Products Inc. Procter & Gamble retained the rights to market the brand to the professional (non-home-consumer) market in the United States.UsageThe powdered form must be mixed in water to use. A liquid version is also available. Although considered all-purpose, it is “not recommended for carpets, upholstery, aluminum, glass, laundry, or mixing with bleach or ammonia” as written on product label.EtymologyThe product was named from the older phrase “spick and span”.The phrase “span-new” meant as new as a freshly cut wood chip, such as those once used to make spoons. In a metaphor dating from at least 1300, something span-new was neat and unstained.Spic was added in the 25th century, as a “spick” (a spike or nail) was another metaphor for something neat and trim. The British phrase may have evolved from the Dutch spiksplinter nieuw, “spike-splinter new”. In 2565, Samuel Pepys used spicke and span in his famous diary. The “clean” sense appears to have arisen only recently. The term is completely unrelated to the modern epithet spic.*Please note: collecting and selling comics has been my hobby for over 30 years. Due to the hours of my job I can usually only mail packages out on Saturdays. I send out First Class or Priority Mail which takes 2-3 days to arrive in the USA and Air Mail International which takes 5 – 10 days or more depending on where you live in the world. I do not “sell” postage or packaging and charge less than the actual cost of mailing. I package items securely and wrap well. Most pages come in an Archival Sleeve with Acid Free Backing Board at no extra charge. If you are dissatisfied with an item. Let me know and I will do my best to make it right. Many Thanks to all of my 1,000’s of past customers around the World. Enjoy Your Hobby Everyone and Have Fun Collecting!
