Step back in time and explore the world of drug stores throughout history. From Montreal Pharmacy in Canada to Charles Lowe & Co Drug Store in Surbiton, Surrey, these establishments have played a vital role in communities worldwide. In the bustling city of Montreal, Canada, stands the iconic Montreal Pharmacy. Serving its community since its inception, this drugstore has been a trusted source for all medical needs. Whether it's prescriptions or over-the-counter remedies, they have catered to countless individuals seeking relief. Traveling back to 1950s America takes us to Cascade, Idaho. On the main street of this quaint town lies a drugstore frozen in time. Circa 1950 captures an era where locals would gather at their beloved drugstore for everything from medications to toiletries. Independence, Oregon witnessed Williamette Valley hop farmers flocking into town during political forums held at their local drugstore. In 1939 Dorothea Lange captured these gatherings that brought together both politics and community spirit. Pittsboro, North Carolina paints a picture of Saturday afternoons filled with shopping and visiting along its main street. The local drugstore served as a hub for social interaction as residents gathered to catch up on news while browsing through shelves stocked with essentials. The French market sidewalk scene along Waterfront in New Orleans showcases another facet of the drug store experience - one intertwined with culture and vibrancy. This snapshot from 1935 by Walker Evans depicts how even amidst busy markets; pharmacies stood tall as pillars of health and well-being. History reveals that access to healthcare was not always readily available for everyone. An engraving depicting a queue for free dispensary highlights efforts made by communities to provide care for those less fortunate – showcasing the compassionate side of pharmacy services. Delving further into history brings us face-to-face with Pierre Quthe - an apothecary whose portrait dates back to 1562 France.
