Antique Prohibition Whiskey & Milk Prescription Doctor Pharmacy Bar Haverford PA
Welcome
&
Thank You for Shopping In the USA!
A beautiful original 1926 Prohibition Prescription for Spirits Frumenti, the US pharmaceutical term for Whiskey... Oi (pint)....Sig: Zss (2 ounces) in Milk t.i.d. (3 times daily)! Please see photos!
From the days of Al Capone, speakeasies 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!
The whiskey was prescribed for Herman Miiller, by Dr. Andrew J. Miiller, both of Philadelphia, PA, on February 23, 1926, and was filled the same day by Pharmacist, Henry Press, of Haverford Pharmacy, in Haverford, PA.
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
The prescription measures 6 1/2" x 5 3/4", has old folds, corner/border wear and a spindle hole, otherwise, condition is very good....a beautiful prescription!
This is a FANTASTIC piece of history and would be great to display in a pharmacy, doctor's office, museum, bar or office! Also a great gift or an addition to a collection of pharmacy, US Currency, medicine, Capone, bar, Americana, stamps and DEA items!
