Advertisements for medicine, likely from between 1870 and 1910. The advertisements include patent medicine trade cards, blotter paper advertisements, broadside advertising sheets, booklets, and calendars. "Patent medicines" were often promoted as "cure-alls" for many parts of the body and their ingredient list (if any) was often inaccurate.


Biographical/historical information

Advertising has a long history. "Trade cards" (in the sense of commerce) were used to advertise many things in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. "Patent medicines" were often promoted as "cure-alls" for many parts of the body and their ingredient list (if any) was often inaccurate. Patent medicines were medical compounds sold under a variety of names and labels, though they were usually trademarked medicines, not patented. The trade cards are small, colorfully illustrated advertising cards touting a particular medicine and its many cures. The illustrations typically have little to do with any of the ailments purported to be cured. Few patent medicines were sold after the passage of the Pure Food and Drug Act of 1906 and its 1912 amendment.

Thomas Hollis advertising broadsides were orginally printed on one sheet (measuring 12 1/8 x 24 1/4 inches) and then cut into three separate advertisements. The first two broadsides are textually identical but differ in typefaces and ornamental type frames. The date 1834 is assigned by one of the OCLC records which states that D. Hooten, printer, 13 Merchants Hall, was at this address during 1834 according to the Boston directory records. Gregg & Hollis, Apothecary, was founded in 1825. In 1833, Gregg sold his share to Hollis who continued the firm under his name until his death in 1975. The business survived until 1901 under the directon of Hollis' sons.
