Shipping
: All
DOMESTIC
shipping charges
INCLUDE
insurance. We have enjoyed shipping our items all over the world and are happy to offer most of our items to international buyers. Yet insuring International parcels is very expensive so PLEASE NOTE; we do
NOT
insure International orders unless winning buyer specifically requests this and we are able to provide an insurance quote. We do not falsify information on the Customs Form, such as a price other than what the actual purchase price is, so please do not request us to do so. We ship several times a week and send payment acknowledgments and shipping confirmations. Your prompt payment will assure a very quick turn-around time.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
If our shipping charge is much more than the actual shipping cost, we will refund the excess so what
YOU
pay for shipping/insurance is very close to, if not exactly, the
ACTUAL
shipping costs! This is especially important for foreign buyers to know as most of our foreign shipping charges are rough estimates.
This is a great looking antique tube of tooth paste in this all-original condition.
L. D. Caulk Co. was a pioneer in the manufacturing of early-day dental products including many bottled and boxed items, including tubed dentifrice (tooth paste).  Most of the products were for tooth repair, filling cavities, and even for the manufacturing of false teeth, but others were more medicinal, dental antiseptic rinse, cavity and pyorrhea fighter, and tooth maintenance, all products that L. D. Caulk Company specialized in.
What the best thing about this is that it looks EXACTLY LIKE a TUBE of TOOTHPASTE of today.
Many of the collectors of antique dental items like this, are dentists, building small collections of quality antique dental products to display in their waiting rooms and offices.   This is a prime example of just this sort of thing;
very desirable in this ALL - ORIGINAL condition, still sealed in box,
