Info please.
« on: June 01, 2012, 05:08:08 pm »
 I wa wondering if anyone has any info on a product called Juvito. It's an herb tablet. It's in a wooden pill bottle. I was wondering age and value. I have attached a photo. Any info would be great. I have not been able to find anything. Thank you.  Doug Matthews

No idea here , fresh .

Perhaps you might post more info from the printing on the items' container ; I can't make out all of the info from your image (every little bit helps) .

Considering that the container is wooden , perhaps it was being billed as an earlier-day 'viagra-esque' supplement (as many hokey products once were) ?

Only thing I have found so far are ads in the Jewish Criterion and a couple in a foreign language I did not recognize !!  Similar to Arabic but not it !! One did say "Herbal Viagra" but may have been another ad !!

I have found some reference to Bielek Mfg. Co, Pittsburg from items being sold stated as dating from 1910 and 1926. There is also record of a trademark dispute dated 1929
.

Very little info on the company that I can find......someone with more research skills or reference material at hand would likely find more.

The product was not made by Bielek !!  Several other companies also sold it !! I think it must have been a product that was shopped out for a percentage of the profits !!  Saw reference to two other companies that were not medically related but had this in an ad !!

He did a second thread KC with a pic of the back but all it had were instructions and damage to the container so it didn`t help !!
