Description
From the sellerLithographed (not a paper label) tin container for Nysis brand talcum powder, made by AGRA Parfumeur, Detroit, MI; still full of its original powder and marked on the tin as containing 3 ounces of powder, measuring approx 6" tall x 1 1/2" x 1 1/2" x 1 1/2" (it is 3 sided). Undated but my brief research on the tin leads me to guess that is is from the mid-1930's. Please see my photos for the very good condition, with no creases, dents or major paint chips. There are a couple of these tins on ebay-I believe my condition is the best and my total price to the buyer the lowest. I ship every day and this tin is from a pet free and smoke free home-it has no odor.
