    Found several old tin cans someone threw out including this old Hope Laxative, Delicious Chocolate Taste! 24 tablets just 25 cents! I could not find any history on this so not sure of age.

      Laxatives are probably the most commonly seen medical product from the late 1800s till mid 1900s. It's an odd collection, but it can be a massive, diverse, and artistic one.
      Vitamin-D began being advertised in milk during the 1930s. Everyone obsessed over its benefits as it nearly ended several issues in children.
      As your piece advertises Vitamin D, it is likely 1930s - 1950s.

      When nature halts, we need a little more than hope. Pluto Water promised "Pluto passes everything".

      If there is still some in it, I don't think they would taste either delicious or like chocolate XD
