AFW - Antique France Worldwide

Detailed visual description

This listing is for a vintage Véganine tablet advertising box, illustrating a fine example of mid-20th century French pharmaceutical packaging. The item has an elongated rectangular shape, with a clearly visible main side displaying the words "20 comprimés Véganine" (20 Véganine tablets) on a red background, framed by a yellow border typical of 1950s-60s advertising graphic codes.

The contrasting white lettering is crisp and occupies most of the visible side, offering excellent brand visibility. The box is in good condition for a vintage item, with some slight signs of wear on the visible corners, including a slight denting of the cardboard on one corner, which attests to its authenticity and age.

The visible side edge shows additional text printed in red on a yellow background, typical of instructions and legal notices of the time, although the detail of the text is not fully legible in the photo. The surface of the box has a matte finish, with no particular shine or relief, and the entire item displays a characteristic retro pharmaceutical style.

The dominant color of the box is a slightly patinated pale yellow, highlighted by the bright red band on the main side. No other patterns or logos are visible in this view. The item is photographed in natural light, revealing the texture of the cardboard and the printing quality of the era.

This type of old advertising box, now impossible to find in pharmacies, represents an authentic testament to the history of packaging in the medical sector in France.
