Item Details
Description
We are delighted to present an exceptional example of early American advertising and packaging: a 1-pound Health Brand coffee tin from the esteemed Lewis De Groff & Son company of New York. This rare collectible stands out for its superior condition, with no dents and the original lid intact, a testament to its remarkable preservation.The tin boasts an elegantly aged patina, with vibrant graphics still visible, including the iconic Health Brand seal and the comforting image of a steaming cup of coffee. The presence of the original slogan, "Health by Good Living," along with the guarantee and refund policy of the era, offer a glimpse into the bygone days of American consumer confidence and marketing.This can, patented January 30, 1923, also includes the treasured feature of a full-color illustration of the company's guarantee, making it a notable find for collectors of vintage advertising, coffee memorabilia, or Americana.Condition report: Very good condition, with the expected wear commensurate with age. The lithographed surface retains its clarity and color, with minor surface scratches and slight discoloration adding character to the piece. The can's structural integrity is uncompromised, with no significant rust or corrosion, and the lid, often lost or replaced over time, is original to the piece.A gem of its kind, this Health Brand coffee tin is a remarkable survivor from a past era of exquisite craftsmanship and design in everyday objects. This lot offers not just an item, but a piece of history—a nostalgic journey to a time when coffee was a luxury and packaging was art. Don't miss the chance to own this slice of Americana.
