Handbill

Interesting History Began more than Three Quarters of a Century Ago

Four page newspaper-format handbill advertising Father John's Medicine. The first three pages contain a story about the history of the company, complete with illustrations and photographs. Brief passages about the company in French, Italian, and Polish are printed on the third page as well. An alleged "Certificate of Analysis" from Seil, Putt, and Rusby, Incorporated, "Analytical, Consulting, and Research Chemists, Microscopists" is printed on the back page, providing flattering quotes about the quality of Father John's products.
