1931 Rare Myocarditis Cardiologist Prohibition Whiskey Heart Medicine Prescription Stub Antique Pharmacy Bar Doctor selling Philadelphia PA 8/21

A great original Prohibition doctor's prescription stub for Spirits Frumenti, the US pharmaceutical term for Whiskey ~ Oi (1 pint)...for Chronic Myocarditis (rare)! Typically whiskey was prescribed for a cold, bronchitis or the flu during the Prohibition....not myocarditis. This was the doctor's stub, retained for his records and was open to inspection by Federal Officers! Please see photos!

From the days of Al Capone, speakeasies and moonshine this was the only legal way to drink liquor in the US!

The whiskey was prescribed for George Schmidt, of Neshaminy, selling PA, by Dr. Edward F. McLaughlin, both of Philadelphia PA, on August 21, 1931.

It was issued by the Treasury Department and when held to the light, PROHIBITION is partially watermarked. The prescription stub measures 4 1/2" by 3" and is in excellent condition.

This is a fantastic piece of history and would be great to display in a pharmacy, museum, bar or office! I am happy to answer any questions, please feel free to email and thank you for your interest!
