⚠️ WARNING: FOR DISPLAY PURPOSES ONLY! DO NOT CONSUME!Rare 1960s Vintage WATE-ON Oral Liquid EmulsionOne Pint Amber Glass Bottle – Factory Sealed with Original Hang-Tag Brochure
Up for sale is an incredibly rare, highly collectible piece of mid-century medical and cultural history: an original 1960s-1970s bottle of WATE-ON Homogenized Liquid Emulsion. Distributed by The Fleetwood Company out of Chicago, Illinois, this iconic dietary supplement was famously advertised throughout the mid-20th century as the go-to solution for gaining weight and \"adding desired pounds.\" This is an exceptional find for collectors of vintage medical quackery, mid-century advertising, or unique oddities.
Condition & Preservation
Factory Sealed Vintage Collectible: Completely full and still factory sealed with its original white metal screw cap. Over the last 50-60+ years, the homogenized emulsion inside has naturally separated and aged, forming an organic-looking mass inside that creates an incredibly unique, oddity-style look under light. The main label is completely intact, crisp, and fully legible with its original $3.00 price point. Includes the rare blue string-bound hang-tag brochure (\"Why Be Skinny?\").
Key Features & Included Extras
- • Original Hang-Tag Included: Rare blue string-bound \"Why Be Skinny?\" brochure fully intact and readable
- • Crisp Main Label: Displays original $3.00 price point and full nutritional breakdown (vegetable oils, sugars, vitamins)
- • Unique Visual Appeal: Naturally aged, separated liquid with an organic internal mass makes a striking oddity display
