Other ships used on Old Spice packaging include the John Wesley, Salem, Birmingham, Maria Teresa, Propontis, Recovery, Sooloo, Star of the West, Constitution, Java, United States, and Hamilton. The original ships used on the packaging were the Grand Turk and the Friendship. Sailing ships in particular were used for the brand's packaging. The men's products included shaving soap and aftershave lotion, marketed with a nautical theme. The product was received well, and therefore was followed by Old Spice for men in 1938. The Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York collection of early American objects provided a source of inspiration for packaging design for the fragrance, Schultz was inspired by his mother's potpourri, and as the result, the first Old Spice product in 1937 was a woman's scent called Early American Old Spice. Shultz reasoned that an Early Americana-themed cosmetics line might also find favor. A buyer at Bullock's in Los Angeles made Schultz aware of the emerging popularity of colonial-American style furniture, a trend spurred by the then-recent opening of Colonial Williamsburg. Old Spice products were originally manufactured by the Shulton Company, founded in 1934 by William Lightfoot Schultz. 1944 advertisement for various Old Spice products
