7/12 7/13 1927 Pegg buy Prohibition Vintage Whiskey Prescription Doctor Rapp's Drug Store Pharmacy Speakeasy Nurse Easton PA Bar

A beautiful original 1927 Prohibition Prescription for Spirits Frumenti, the US pharmaceutical term for Whiskey...Oi (pint)...Sig Zss buy (2 ozs) tid (3 x's daily)! Please see photo!

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!

The whiskey was prescribed for A. C. Pegg, by Dr. C. C. Daigle, on July 12, 1927, and was filled on July 13, 1927, by Pharmacist, Ralph Rapp, of Rapp's Drug Store, in Easton, 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, the graphics are GREAT!

The prescription measures 6 1/2" x 5 3/4", has light folds and light bends, otherwise, condition is excellent...a beautiful prescription!

This is a FANTASTIC piece of history and would be great to display in a pharmacy, museum, wine cellar, bar or office! I am happy to answer any questions you may have, please feel free to email, thanks!
