AFW - Antique France Worldwide

Description

This listing is for an old Adrémad brand medicine box, as shown in the photo. It is a vintage packaging for a cream licensed "Lloyd's Adrenaline Cream", intended to relieve various pains. The box has a classic rectangular shape, with straight edges and flat sides, typical of mid-20th century pharmaceutical packaging.

The graphic design of the box combines an off-white background with a green area on the right end, where the usage indications are written in white capital letters: "Muscle pain", "Rheumatism", "Sciatica", "Lumbago". The name "Adrémad" appears in large green handwritten typography, highlighting the product, followed by the mention "Licence Lloyd's Adrenaline Cream" in a more discreet font.

The visible side shows a clear print, with colors well preserved despite a slight cardboard patina, characteristic of old objects. No other text or illustration is visible on this side. The whole evokes a retro, sober and functional pharmaceutical aesthetic, without graphic frills.

The box is photographed resting on a pile of old books, which highlights its character as a curiosity object and its decorative interest. No interior content or details about the back or sides are visible in the image.

Condition

Used box, sold as is. The general appearance shows a homogeneous patina and some signs of wear, consistent with the age of the object. The print remains legible and the colors are well preserved on the visible side.

Did you know? In the early 20th century, adrenaline-based creams were used in medicine for their vasoconstrictive and anti-inflammatory effects. Lloyd's licensed products were renowned for their preparations intended for the relief of joint and muscle pain, before the advent of modern treatments.
