Offering this Rare Large 2# Size Bynol – It reads: “BYNOL The Perfected Malt & Oil. A unique combination of active Malt Extract with the Allenbury’s Cod Liver Oil. Manufacturers Allen & Hanbury’s Ltd, Plough Court, Lombard St. London, E. C.” One side of the pot describes the application and another side the directions.

Allen & Hanburys Ltd, was a major British pharmaceutical company founded in 1715 in London. “Bynol” was a nutritional tonic — a combination of: Active malt extract (a concentrated source of carbohydrates and vitamins from barley malt) and Cod liver oil (rich in vitamins A and D). It was marketed as a restorative health supplement to improve vitality, appetite, and resistance to illness in the late Victorian and Edwardian eras.

This is a rare one, in very good condition with a beautiful dark transfer that covers most of the pot. There is one minor chip on the bottom ring, a few colored age marks, and one small hairline crack on the bottom front as shown. Please consider the images as the best part of my description.

Measures approximately 5 3/8″ tall x 4″ diameter at base x 2 3/4″ mouth opening.

Great addition to display in your kitchen or elsewhere with your collection.

This is an authentic antique advertising pot sourced during my recent buying trip to England. I have been sourcing these wonderful antique pots for over 12 years from sources who are actually digging them up in ancient rubbish sites all over England. I purchased my first antique Advertising pot when my husband and I had the wonderful opportunity to live in England in the 1980’s. Our daughter was born there and we enjoyed living in England so much we often went back to visit after returning to the US.

Interestingly, this same daughter’s husbands job moved them to London were we have enjoyed visiting our grandchildren and traveling the countryside antiquing.

On our many visits we have became friends with many of the “diggers” excavating the ancient dumpsites all over the UK and now source thousands of pots from them every year. I still love the charm they add to every room they are placed in.

Returns are not excepted on these rare authentic pieces but please contact if you have any questions.
