I saw this in a SOTD photo on another forum and an Internet search turns up Jack Schitt. Anyone know of it? :unsure:

^ Check towards the end of the blurb.

Looking at the design, I believe that is simply the unscented soap in the original wide/slim tub before the white ones with red lids. That was the same design under the Wickham brand.
 
I had to pop up into the loft, but here's my original edition Super Smooth:

You can see the distinct similarity. This was the format prior to the white tubs with the red lids and highly coloured labels. This tub is 5" wide! Big enough for these 28mm and 30mm knots that are in vogue at the moment!

It was (well, is) a really nice soap and as an unscented soap, it smells ... well, soapy. Like cotton sheets billowing in the wind.

In fact, now it's out of storage, it's on the slate for a shave this week. With the biggest brush I can find!
 
It's all explained in the link below guys from which the following quote has been taken

'In late 2014 Darron was approached to formulate a shaving soap for the US market under the Huntlee brand. This project adopted the name of one of Wickham's prototype soap bases, ‘Master Lather'.
