Early Advert Advises Mothers For Teething Comfort
An old ad promotes Mrs Winslow’s Soothing Syrup claiming it calms teething pains and cures wind colic. It mentions low prices and that George P Marott at 16 is selling the remedy, reflecting period marketing language and rough OCR. The copy emphasizes soothing the child and rapid relief as a selling point.
