Collector's Notes

Metal Band-Aid boxes were a familiar part of American medicine cabinets before disposable cardboard and plastic packaging became standard.

This tin suits collectors of pharmacy advertising, medical packaging, household tins, or Johnson & Johnson memorabilia.

The bold block graphics and original price-sticker fragment give this exact tin plenty of period character.

It also works as a small storage box while keeping its vintage display appeal.
