Pears’ Soap Advertisements and Literature

Pears’ Soap published a Christmas Annual between 1891 and 1925. The internet is awash with various beatiful coloured adds and front covers. But nowhere can I find a bibliography of this eries of magazines. I know that A. Conan Doyle appears in some if not many of them. I came across this series of adds from tear sheets from The Nation which I acquire from George Locke’s trash bin a year or so ago now. Here’s a pdf with an assortment, rather plain and no colour, but The Nation was published in black and white.
