Vintage Condition
Every piece here is pre-loved and often decades old, so expect gentle signs of age and use, like light scratches, softened plating or finish, small marks, or patina. That's part of each piece's history and charm, and nothing will look fresh off a showroom floor.
Anything beyond normal wear, such as chips, cracks, repairs or damage, is always pointed out in the description and shown in the photos. If an item arrives with a flaw I didn't mention, my return policy has you covered.

Vintage Lysol Brand Disinfectant Bottle with Original Box & Directions Circular | Lehn & Fink Bloomfield NJ | New Improved Formula | 6 oz Amber Glass | Early 1950s
$29.00
Would your grandmother have kept one of these in the bathroom and one in the kitchen, just like the circular says? This is a vintage Lysol Brand Disinfectant set by Lehn & Fink Products Corporation, Bloomfield, N.J.: a 6 fl. oz. amber glass bottle with embossed Lysol lettering, its original box, and the folded "Easy-to-follow Directions" circular.
The box and label announce the "New Improved!" formula with a "Lighter, Cleaner Odor", and the circular explains that this improved formula was adopted in 1952. That dates the set to the early 1950s (the circular carries a 1948 copyright). The paperwork is a real slice of history: it recommends Lysol for household cleaning, cuts, burns, athlete's foot and "feminine hygiene", uses that are startling today and a well-known chapter of mid-century advertising. The circular even has its mail-in coupon for free booklets, still attached. The box carries the Good Housekeeping guarantee and Parents' Magazine seals.
Contents: The bottle is about three-quarters full of its original contents and the cap is tight. Sold as a display piece only; contents are not for use. Because of the original contents, this item ships by ground only.
Condition: Good vintage condition. Labels are bright and intact. The paperboard box is dry and brittle with age; pieces of the top flap have broken off and are included with the set. The circular has fold lines, light toning and edge wear. Please see all photos.
