This item is undated but was likely produced in the 1890s, a period during which the company was engaged in litigation with Victor F. Van Stan, the son of the compound's inventor, Frederick Van Stan. Frederick Van Stan sold the rights to the name and product to Philadelphia resident John A. Keenan in 1876.

Victor F. Van Stan emigrated to Philadelphia in 1889 and later began selling adhesive compounds marketed as "Victor F. Van Stan's Cementine" and "Van Stan's Improved Cement". In 1902, Keenan sued the younger Van Stan and, in 1904, a court prohibited Victor F. Van Stan from using his name in the manufacture of competing products.
