Tablespoonful TID! Stamped on the back is: "I am in personal attendance on the patient named herein and the alcoholic preparation prescribed is necessary to the proper treatment of the ailment from which said patient is suffering." Please see photos!From the days of Al Capone, flappers and moonshine, this was the only legal way to drink liquor in the US! This prescription has poppies on the top corners, fleur-de-lys on the bottom, and spider-webbed borders! It was written for Shirley Close, by Dr. G. W. White, on November 21, 1925, and was filled on the same day by Pharmacist, N. W. Thompson, of Baldanf & Tucker's Drug Co., in Henderson, KY. It was issued by the Treasury Department and is printed on fancy, beautiful paper, that was also used for U.S. currency. In the center is the old Treasury Seal with the Latin inscription, "Thesaur. Amer. Septent. Sigil.". When you hold this prescription up to the light PROHIBITION is watermarked, as with the metal strips that are used in U.S. bills today, the graphics are GREAT! This prescription measures 6 1/2" x 5 3/4", has a spindle hole in the center and a tiny spot above the N, otherwise, condition is EXCELLENT...a FANTASTIC Rx! This is a wonderful piece of history and would be great to display in a pharmacy, museum, wine cellar, bar or office! I am happy to answer any questions, please feel free to email, thanks! Pleased to combine shipping with other Prohibition Prescriptions, Liquor Licenses, Opium Forms & Pharmacy Labels. As always, many thanks to my regular customers for your continued patronage! ginger.1 store
