This text is one in a series of books published in the 1880's by the WILLIAM WOOD & COMPANY, 55 & 58 Lafayette Place, NEW YORK. Printed in New York by TROW’s Printing and Bookbinding Company. 310 pages. Various black & white plates with 1 in color.

Roll back the clock to the early 1900s and imagine buying this tin. Talk about an instant classic! Not sure if the claims on the label were legitimate, but if they weren't, the owner had a great tin to display beside his sick horse!

The image speaks for itself. The labeling mentions the word 'cure' as well as the 1906 "Food and Drug Act". There are various unobtrusive dings and crimps and faint areas of surface rust commensurate with a vintage tin. It is empty and measures 7.25 inches high.

One package is marked PARKE DAVIS – “BUTTERNUT” - Bark of Root, measures 8” x 5”, and is in a one pound package. The other 6 wrapped packages feature hand-written content labels and are as follows: “Pd. Poplar Bark” 5” x 2” – “Pink Root” 4” x 4” x2” – “Beth Root” 3”x2” – Poke Root” 5” x4” x2” – a plastic bag of “Buchu Leaves” 8”x 6” x 2” and “Alkanit Root” in an 8” x 5” paper wrapper.

Aside from the Buchu Leaves, the packages are in “as found” but generally quite good condition considering their substantial age and very fragile nature!

The company notes that their tablets could treat numerous symptoms and conditions especially womens ills. It enjoys crossover appeal in that it is also a 1904 World's Fair souvenir and an advertisement for the drug company - what a wonderful giveaway!

The Antikamnia ("Opposed to Pain") Chemical Company of St. Louis, Missouri, produced medicines similar to aspirin and were famous for their very graphic calendars that were given to physicians as tokens for prescribing their products.

Measuring just 3.25 inches long, this hand-carved piece features a spatula that is tapered to a fine, thin edge allowing for the easy handling of the finest-ground drug powders.

The contents include copious information on such as: ETIOLOGY, DIAGNOSTIC INDICATIONS, DISEASE PROGRESS & PROGNOSIS, TREATMENT, REMEDIES and much more.

This fabulous, circa 1890's, Dr. Daniels Home Remedies case is an exceptional offering!

The printing on the handle and the painted label on the top of the lid make this oak medicine chest quite special.

The case measures approximately 13"L x 7"W x "H and formerly housed medicines, a thermometer, a medicine doser, metal and glass syringes, and a Dr. Daniels manual on treating farm animals.

The wooden case is in very nice condition sporting nickel plated brass edge guards and handle. The top of the lid has a painted label, and the case's finish shows an appropriate patina and signs of wear commensurate with its use. The top of the lock is missing.

It measures just over 3.5 inches high and is marked “BAVARIA” on the base. The condition is fine with negligible, minor paint wear to the cup's gold-painted rim.

An Interesting HISTORY of the CUDAHY Company noted below:

The Cudahy meat packing industry dates back to the turn of the century. The Cudahy meat industry, with stockyards in Omaha, Chicago, Sioux City and Los Angeles produced the REX brand of fine beef and pork products.

Collectively, these 10 globes offer a unique, historical perspective into the process and history of US paper making, and they serve as an educational tool, with each individual globe representing a different step in the process of paper manufacture.

Each globe retains its original contents and bears a specific label describing the contents and their purpose. The glass globes measure just over 6 inches tall and are corked.
