Description
This listing is for a lot of three items. They are a fun set of items advertising Rubifoam which was apparently produced in the late 1800's and started as a cologne which then was used on teeth. It has an interesting history. The empty bottle is 4 inches high and the following words are on the front in raised letters: Rubifoam For The TEETH Put up By E.W. Hoyt & Company Lowell, Mass. The tiny sample bottle is the jewel of this lot. It is in its original box and only came out when I took pictures. The top of the box came apart but it is with the box. Inside the box is an instruction sheet but a piece was torn off of it. The bottle has a stopper and some of the ruby colored liquid can still be seen in it. It is slightly over 2 inches high. The label on it is still perfect and the back has raised glass letters that read--Sample of Rubifoam for the Teeth E.W. Hoyt & Co Lowell, Mass. You can see both sides of the box in my pictures. The third item is the advertising fan. I believe it was a reproduction in the 1940's. It is in great shape. All items are vintage--the bottles well over 100 years old.I am also listing several lots, dental tins, bottles, toothpastes, toothbrushes and other dental related products. I am happy to answer any questions and to combine auctions for shipping. Thank you for looking.
