AFW - Antique France Worldwide

Description

Old advertising box visible in the photo, cylindrical in shape, for the InhaloThiorine brand. The object has a domed lid matching the base, both decorated with graphics typical of the 1930-1950s with oblique green stripes on a light green background, and a very characteristic red typography. The inscription "INHALO THIORINE" is perfectly legible in capital letters on the top and side, accompanied by the mention "Comprimés inhalateurs" (Inhaler tablets) on the visible part of the rim.

The box has a glossy finish on the colored parts, suggesting a lacquered or varnished coating on the exterior. The marked contrast between green and red, as well as the graphic style, evoke a retro advertising aesthetic, typical of old pharmacies or dispensaries from the mid-20th century. No logo or precise vintage mention is visible, but the design and typography allow this box to be attributed to the vintage period, probably between the 1930s and 1950s.

The visible side shows a generally satisfactory condition for a period piece, with a generally clean surface, no deep scratches or apparent signs of oxidation. However, some small signs of wear or micro-scratches are visible on the lid, compatible with the age of the object and its initial use.

The cylindrical format and graphic presentation make this box a decorative item of choice, whether for recreating an old pharmacy ambiance, for decorating a retro display window, or as a curiosity on a desk or shelf. The InhaloThiorine brand, clearly highlighted, reinforces the authentic and advertising aspect of the object.

The main inscriptions, such as "INHALO THIORINE" and "COMPRIMÉS INHALATEURS", are clear and legible on the visible parts of the box. No other details are discernible on the areas not exposed in the photo.
