MISCELLANEOUS STATEMENT
Swan was a brand of soap introduced by the Lever Brothers Company in 1941.Swan was advertised as a soap that could be used in the
kitchen as a hand soap or in the bathroom to bathe the baby. Swan, like Ivory, was a floating soap, but Lever had developed and patented a new manufacturing method that both streamlined the process
and resulted in a finer product more like milled soap. A typical advertisement boasted that Swan was "the white floating soap that's purer than the finest castiles." Lever Brothers used the Swan
brand name to sponsor several radio programs, notably The George Burns and Gracie Allen Show (1941-1945), Joanie's Tea Room (1945-1947), The Bob Hope Show (1948-1949), and My Friend Irma (1947-1951).
Swan's print ads were colorful works of art, and often featured children, babies, soapsuds and, of course, a swan. Some people had the Swan soap ad prints displayed on their wall at home. In 1972,
Gladys Young sued the manufacturer of Swan liquid dishwashing detergent, Lever Brothers, and the manufacturer's insurer for damages because of skin irritation allegedly caused by her use of the
product between 1968-70. She testified that a week or two after she started using Swan, The detergent dried out her fingers and they began to itch around the nails. When her nails began to recede
within two or three months, Mrs. Young reflected upon the cause and theorized that the change to Swan could have been responsible for the condition. The district court dismissed her suit after a
trial on the merits on September 26, 1973. However, publicity from the trial hurt sales and Swan Detergent was discontinued by 1974. A trademark application for Swann Soap was commenced on April 4,
2019 and abandoned on December 23, 2019.
