One of the most if not the most collectable soaps of all time, P.160 Tipo Morbido Shaving Soap, was a staple for Italian Barber Shops for years. Available in “hard” and “soft” versions, this soap’s popularity emerged in the early 2000s with the advances of the internet. (This soap brought the popular “almond” scent mainstream”
In 2015, the company no longer produced p.160 and collectors went crazy over it. Some bars fetched as high as $500 on secondary sites.

The most anticipated podcast of the year is right around the corner. The 10th Annual Fall Seasonal Special features fall releases from all artisans and vendors alike. Fall is the #1 season for specialty items and the most fun in my opinion.
