Vintage tins are fascinating! Ms. Jeannie loves their way with product wording. This antique Cuticura talcum powder tin tells a lovely story. On the back it offers a list of uses including "after the bath: as an absorbent dusting powder - assures personal daintiness"
Ms. Jeannie is in love with the word dainty and all its associations almost as much as she is in love with the vibrant color of this tin and the wonderful original (still fresh!) smelling powder inside. That's right my dears, it still contains the powder! All full 4 oz. of it!
About the tin: Measuring 5" inches (height) x 2.5" inches (width) x 1.25' inches (depth). There is a round rust spot as seen on pictures which gives the tin a wonderful aged patina. Otthe then that the tin is in wonderful vintage condition.
About Cuticura: Cuticura was founded in 1865 and is still actively manufacturing medicated skin care products in their factories today. It offered one of the first medicated soaps in North America and cotinues to develop and research innovative skin care formulas.
