CIRCA: 1950s-1960s
DETAIL: This listing is for 1 dozen genuine vintage paper medicine cups. New old surplus from a Minnesota hospital shuttered in the early '60s. Arrived sealed in the original packaging. With minimal handling, they were immediately transferred into sealed zipper bags to keep them clean. The cups are 3 sided with blue graphics on an aged white backdrop. The fronts bear a Caduceus within a cross, with 4 different dose measurements on the backs. They remind me of the medication line-up scene in "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest" and would be perfect as themed shot glasses.

ITEMS IN PHOTOS: The original packaging box and the other props seen in the posted photos are sold separately. Convo for details.
SHIPPING: These cups are made of paper and can be easily crushed, therefore they can't be shipped in an envelope. Even though a dozen only weighs about 2 ounces, they must be shipped in a box--which adds a bit to the S&H. Posted S&H rates are estimated. Refunds will be given for overages of $1 or more. Although the cups will be thoroughly protected with packing materials and shipped in the safest manner possible, Retro Vertigo assumes no responsibility for carrier issues occurring in transit. If this is a concern, please request to purchase shipping insurance. All sales are final. No returns, exchanges or refunds are offered for this item.
