Physicians Propose Rheumatism Medicine Across London
An expert remedy for rheumatism is advertised amid criticisms of quack ads. The medicine reportedly acts by perspiration and urine, available as bolus pills or liquid with relief promised after first dose and potential cure. Notable supporters and contacts include Solomon Ashley and Henry Dart with several merchants, surgeons, and tradespeople listed as endorsers across Gracechurch Street, Finchampstead, Spitalfields, and the Strand.
