This is a listing for one (1) Mini Holloway’s Ointment Pot with a rare variant.  I love the detail on this mini ointment pot with dark transfer images all the way around.  On the reverse side is a picture of Mother and Child with a list of ailments. What is rare about this pot is the depiction of exposed breasts on the Mother.  This pot was in use from 1860s to about 1920 from various addresses.  This pot is addressed 533 Oxford St, London.

This pot is in good condition with beautiful dark transfer. It does have a hairline crack on the lip extending to the inside of the pot.  Displays well.  Please consider the images as the best part of my description.

Most pots have some level of crazing, may have spots of discoloration, light hairline cracks and minor chips and fleabites that should be considered patina, additions to character and do not detract from its display value.  These are expected due to age, use, and let’s not forget, they were often buried for decades before being dug up and rescued.

I offer substantial savings in shipping costs when multiple items are combined into one package.  I work hard to find the most economical shipping options available by checking multiple discount carriers.

 I will credit any overpayment of postage charged to you after finding the best shipping option. I check both ParcelMonkey.com and Shipgooder.com for the most economical delivery to save you shipping dollars. These companies negotiate better rates with USPS, Fed Ex and UPS than individuals can on their own.
