Find - 12 DR. WEST ' S MIRACLE TUFT TOOTHBRUSHES IN GLASS TUBES Boxed
Item History & Price
| Reference Number: Avaluer:14314415 |
Amazing Find-12 DR. WEST'S MIRACLE TUFT TOOTHBRUSHES IN GLASS TUBES boxed. The patent date on the box is 1938. These were the very first toothbrushes with synthetic bristles rather than natural animal bristles. (See information below.) They are new in the sense that they were never used. The seals on the glass tube are no longer sealed and some of the seals are missing--understandable for the age of these brushes. There are 12 in sealed tubes. I did ...not remove them from the box--thought I would let the purchaser do that. The box will need a touch of glue stick on the seam--again I don't want to alter it. These should be in a museum or antique dental display because of the history of the brushes, etc..
"Boar bristles were used until 1938, when nylonbristles were introduced by the company Dupont de Nemours. The first nylon toothbrush was called Doctor West's Miracle Toothbrush." From the internet
