EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the late 19th century, specifically to an American newspaper from 1890. The advertisement featured here is for Beechams Pills, a well-known patent medicine pill of that era. The intricate oil engraving showcases the artistry and attention to detail prevalent during this time. The ad itself is a fascinating glimpse into the world of advertising in the turn of the century America. It highlights both the allure and skepticism surrounding medicinal products at that time. Promising improved health and wellness, Beechams Pills were marketed as a solution for various ailments. The image prominently features a coiled serpent intertwined with text, symbolizing rejuvenation and vitality. This clever visual element aimed to capture readers' attention while reinforcing notions of healing power associated with ancient symbols. However, it's important to note that many patent medicines during this period were often fraudulent or ineffective. While some genuinely helped people alleviate their symptoms, others were nothing more than snake oil remedies peddled by unscrupulous individuals seeking financial gain. Nevertheless, this print serves as a historical artifact reminding us of society's fascination with health remedies at that time. It also reflects on how advertising techniques have evolved over the years while raising questions about authenticity in marketing practices then and now.
