Welcome
&
Thank You for Shopping In the USA!
An ornate rare 1925 Texas Prohibition Prescription for Whiskey...Oi (Pint)....Zss q 6 hrs...for Asthma
! There were five different Prohibition prescriptions issued, yet, the State of Texas must have had a law in which the prescriptions had to be returned on a monthly basis. Please see photos!
From the days of Al Capone, speakeasies and moonshine this was the only legal way to get liquor in the US!
The whiskey was prescribed for R. L. P
erkins
, by Dr. Edmund J. Hardy, on September 25, 1925, and was filled the same day by Pharmacist, Jacob Schrodt, of the Griffith Drug Store, in Terrell, TX.
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 4 3/4", has a paperclip mark on the top border and on
e fold
, otherwise, condition is excellent...a beautiful Texas Whiskey Rx!
This is a FANTASTIC piece of history and would be great to display in a pharmacy, wine cellar, 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!
