Favorite Prescription and reminiscences of cures in old ads
A collage of medical claims and product hints from early 20th century ads. Dr Pierce’s Favorite Prescription promises relief for “weak or ailing” women, while P. P. blood purifier and other tonics boast cures for scrofula eczema rheumatism and more. Scattered notes on filtering air, odd characters, and various patent remedies fill the page with period advertising voice.
