Vintage Heal-Aseptic Medicine Box

We love old boxes - to collect and to give away. We especially enjoy boxes like this to use for collage or assemblage. But, more than anything, we like to package gifts in these. Our friends have come to expect fun gifts in vintage boxes.

This Vintage Heal-Aseptic box measures 2 by 2 by 5 inches when it is "assembled". It arrives flat and is pretty easy to put together.

The front and back of the box reads:

We found it interesting to note that even the name of the product is breakable (with a hyphen). With today's technology, such graphics would probably never printed as such.

This exceptionally well-preserved box is shipped flat for you to make - just like in the early 1940s when it was made.
