Welcome
&
Thank You for Shopping In the USA!
A beautiful original 1926 Prohibition Prescription for 1 Pt Whiskey...1 Z once a day! Please see photos!
From the days of Al Capone, flappers 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 prescription was filled on October 15, 1926, by Pharmacist Wm Drenner in Marceline, MO.
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 light folds and bends, otherwise, condition is excellent...a beautiful whiskey prescription!
This is a FANTASTIC piece of history and would be great to display in a pharmacy, doctor's office, museum, bar or office! I am happy to answer any questions, please feel free to email and thank you for your interest!
Pleased to combine shipping with other Prohibition Prescriptions, Liquor Licenses, Opium Forms & Pharmacy Labels. As always, many thanks to my regular customers for your continued patronage! :)
