A 1926 Prohibition Prescription for Whiskey…1 pt (pint)…1 O.Z. TID (3 times daily)
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! It was prescribed for John Zimmerman, by Dr. Loyal L. Liken, both of Smith Mill, PA, on December 18, 1926 and was filled the same day by Pharmacist, Wiliam C. Arnold, of Arnold’s Drug Store, in Houtzville, PA.
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.
