I used to watch in amazement when the little blue block was put into the rinsing water. How easily pleased we were. lol!
Just found this, so Reckitt's Blue is still available.

White cottons and linens tended to take on a yellowish tinge after they were washed using soap or old style soap powders, (which were simply granulated soap).
The 'Reckitts Blue' acted as a weak dye to counter this yellowing, and the hint of blue made things look whiter.
These days, modern washing powders have 'lighteners' and 'brighteners' in them that are much more effective at whitening than using 'blue'
