What about Watkins vanilla, sold through traveling sales representative? I would love to get another Fuller hair brush, sold the same way.
Watkins Extracts are still available. I ck'd and they are available on-line, but last year I saw them at the local Michael's craft store too...no postage (yea!).

Are you thinking of Artex paints? Came in a tube with a tip like a ball point. You still find some pillowcases with this on them at the thrift shops.
