Vintage Tin - Sample Man-Zan Cream for Rectal Discomfort: 1,805 ppm Lead + 975 ppm Mercury [Not a good idea to let kids play with vintage tins!]
A new addition for my “Museum of Lead”!
When tested with an XRF instrument this tiny vintage tin of “Man-Zan” cream (“for rectal discomfort”) had the following readings (on the painted logo surface, when tested for a minimum of 60 seconds).

  • Lead (Pb): 1,805 +/- 160 ppm
  • Mercury (Hg): 975 +/- 197 ppm
  • Chromium (Cr): 602 +/- 122 ppm
  • Tin (Sn): 37,900 +/- 400 ppm
  • Zinc (Zn): 954 +/- 193 ppm
  • Copper (Cu): 1,072 +/- 275 ppm
  • Iron (Fe): 818,200 +/- 2,100 ppm
  • Titanium (Ti): 117,200 +/- 1,300 ppm
  • Cobalt (Co): 16,000 +/- 1,600 ppm
  • Magnesium (Mn): 3,124 +/- 639 ppm

Most of the vintage tins I have tested have been positive for at least some amount of Lead (and often other toxicants as well.) To see more vintage tins I have tested, click here.

As always, thank you for reading and for sharing my posts.

Please let me know if you have any questions.
