Aspirin/Headache Collection For Sale
More than 40 years of enthusiastic collecting has brought together more than 2,000 items. Acquisitions include tins, bottles, advertising, displays, vending machines, misc. paraphernalia, and much more related to aspirin and headache remedies. Many items are super rare or one-of-a-kind. More than 1,300 tins, all different in some manner, also several duplicates, are included in the assemblage. Dates of items range from 1800s to late 1900s. This is a super huge collection (dare I say, the largest in the world of its kind?).

I would prefer to sell everything together but if that is not possible, then I'd like to sell all tins together, all bottles together, etc. Custom made oak display cases for the tins and bottles are for sale also. All serious offers will be given consideration.
Since collecting for more than 40 years, you probably get an idea of how much has been accumulated and the variety and rarity of the items. The collection includes many pieces that I've either never seen before or I've only seen once before. I'll admit that there have been a few items that have slipped through my fingers but I have been an ardent and determined collector. Now this collection, or parts of it, could be yours.
