Weeks & Potter Lead in Proprietary Medicines Trade
In an interview, Mr Van discusses Weeks & Potter as importers and wholesale druggists long prominent in New England. He explains medicines labeled as proprietary trade marks, not patent medicines, and argues true remedies gain success through proven value and patient recommendations rather than flashy advertising. He notes Weeks & Potter have not previously prepared medicines for popular use, aside from representing other firms.
