Default Pontiac Desert Storm Lip Balm

Yes, you read right. Pontiac Lip Balm.

It appears that Pontiac wanted to help the Marines in Desert Storm and had a bunch of lip balms wrapped in a desert camo covering with red "Pontiac" lettering. They include a 30" tan lanyard for tying around their neck or to their gear. This original box contained 125 lip balms; it is now down to 76 total. The USPS shipping label indicates it was shipped on May 15, 1991. It hardly seems possible that almost 30 years have passed since then.









All of them are in very good condition and not melted or otherwise damaged. I found this at a gun show back in 1992 and have kept it in dry indoor storage since then. The caps are all securely in place. I would imagine that anyone wanting these would not use them, but who knows!

My price for the lip balms is 2 for $1.00. If anyone would want to purchase the whole box with 76 of them, I would sell it for $30.00. All prices are less shipping.

Please let me know if you have any questions.

Thanks, Olmanwinter

I'd like to buy a couple myself as I'm a Desert Storm Vet.

Hi Johnny,

Thank you for your interest in the lip balms.

I have already shipped 74 to Henley and am awaiting payment from Scarebird for the other two. If something happens where the two aren't sold, I will reach out to you.

Thanks, Olmanwinter

Default These Are Now Sold

Johnny406, I received the funds from Scarebird, so all of the lip balms are now sold. Sorry that I couldn't help you.

Henley and Scarebird, thank you for your purchases. I hope that you will be pleased with them.

Thanks, Olmanwinter
