I have been collecting shaving "stuff" for many years, back when it was not fashionable.
About thirty years ago I found this box of shaving creams in Turin. It was old even then, since it dates to about 1946!
It is an interesting combination: the label on the box is in Spanish, the cream is called Sphynx (esfinge in Spanish) but the cream is made in Italy. The message on the tube is in English (with a mistake or two) and hails the Allied troops that were stationed in Post WW2 Italy at the time. It also claimed that it was exported to the US! Incidentally, the cream has a lovely mint scent!
