Tiger Balm 1980.jpg

Tiger Balm in a small tin box. We bought this one at Tiger Balm Gardens in August 1980. Its empty now, probably better than still filled.

See comments below, it's not Tiger Balm, my memory was betraying me.

But the characters on it has nothing to do with Tiger Balm, perhaps the hawkers were also selling other brand names.

It's got 3 grams ... from western part of Beijing city ... the rear side has the instructions for use.

Hi There,

Both Tiger Balm & this Ching Leung Yau are heavy on Camphor anyway.  Some may not like the smell.  Also not to be applied to sensitive area.

Hi all. It could have been that we bought this tin in Beijing before travelling to Hong Kong. I was quite sure it was Tiger Balm. I'll change the post.
