A beautiful original 1926 Prohibition Prescription for Spirits Frumenti, the US pharmaceutical term for Whiskey...Oi (pint)...Ziv tid! 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 Nathan B. Martin, by Dr. Mortimer Cavanaugh, on April 19, 1926, and was filled the same day by Pharmacist, John M. Cassidy, of Cassidy's Drug Store, in Great Barrington, MA.

It was printed by the US Treasury selling Department on beautiful paper, that was also used for US 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 two folds, a couple spots, a shorter than usual, bottom border and a spindle hole, otherwise, condition is very good...a beautiful 1926 Prohibition prescription!

This is a FANTASTIC piece of history and would be great to display in a pharmacy,, distillery, museum, bar or office! Also a great gift or an addition to a collection of pharmacy, medicine, US currency, Alcoholics Anonymous, Capone, 1920s, bar, Americana, stamps and DEA items!

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! :)

All items ship within 24 hours and I will contact you when I receive notification of any purchase, thank you!
