An exceedingly RARE and all-original, commanding group photograph of 1880's NURSES with a bit of the mysterious- might be depicting recent graduates of a nursing program with male and female head instructors or may be a photograph of hospital staff nurses with head nurse and administrator/physician. A bit of intrigue for certain, and most definitely a highly rare and unusual period nursing photo of substantial size! Found in a New York state estate. Framed in original, period frame with wood backing (20 x 15.5 inches); photo dimensions- 14.5 x 19.5 inches. Wonderful condition!

The mushroom stopper sports ground glass construction and is in very nice condition except for a few small flecks on the inside the stopper base.

Discovered in Petaluma, California, this exceptional, late 19th century, medical doctor's advertising sign is constructed in what appears to be copper over brass metals. Boldly inscribed, “DOCTOR CHESTER L. CARLISLE”, this vintage sign measures 15” long x 12” wide. The letters were once painted and now show traces of old black paint in some areas. The beveled edges of the sign are soldered in place to further enhance the appearance of this wonderful sign. The original patina and surface are in untouched, "as found" condition. A fabulous addition to any doctor or medical collection!

Offered for sale is an absolutely wonderful, 19th century, apothecary pharmacy bottle sporting a colorful, hand painted, glass label marked “SPIGELIA.E SENN.” that came from the former A.D. Pierce Pharmacy in Hartford, CT!! The 8.5 inch tall fluid extract bottle is an impressive sight to see when displayed! There are no markings on the bottom of the bottle. The condition of the amber bottle is excellent with minor paint lifting and discoloration to the glass label. Some unobtrusive paint loss to the (L) hand corner. The A.D. Pierce Pharmacy originated in Hartford, Connecticut, at 914 Main Street during the late 19th century and later relocated to 247 Sigourney Street in Hartford as A.D. Pierce and Son. Posted along with photos of the bottles, is an image of the pharmacy, circa 1960, which is NOT included with the sale of the bottle.

Offered is an appealing and unusual pair of late 1900s, gold gilt, painted, wood and metal dentist signs. The signs were acquired from a New Hampshire estate. The wood sign measures 24" long x 7.5" wide, and both signs remain in very, very nice overall condition except for expected areas of paint loss, some crackling and general wear commonly seen with vintage signs of such age-- 80+ years! A notable feature of these wonderful signs are that they are each double sided signs. Both sides of the wood sign are signed ‘ACME’ below the letter ‘T’ in the word dentist. The large sign has eyelet hooks for hanging and the smaller curved sign has 2 tin posts for hanging. A rare and visually appealing piece!

Offered is a wonderful, December 21, 1899, Vanity Fair magazine colored lithograph of noted English Physicist, John William Strutt, 3rd Baron Rayleigh.John William Strutt, 3rd Baron Rayleigh (12 November 1842 – 30 June 1919) was an English Physicist who, along with Sir William Ramsay, discovered the element Argon in 1894, an achievement for which he earned the Nobel Prize for Physics in 1904. He also discovered the phenomenon now called Rayleigh scattering and predicted the existence of the surface waves now known as Rayleigh waves. This lovely litho depicts The Baron in his laboratory, presumably in the midst of his Argon discovery. The litho is entitled "ARGON" in the center bottom and is dated in the upper right corner. The words "VANITY FAIR" are printed in the upper left corner, and in the lower left corner is printed, "Vincent Brooks Day & Son, Lithographer". The litho remains in its original frame (framed in Cleveland by The Bonfoey Company), and measures in frame, 14 3/4 inches x 20 3/4 inches. On the back side is pasted the framer's label as well as a small piece of paper citing the title of the litho, "ARGON", as well as naming Lord Strutt (misspelled 'Stratt'), and conveying the first selling price of $5.00!
