(Old Magazines, 19th Century Periodicals, Americana, Trade Magazines, Pharmacy, Chemistry, Vintage Advertising).

The Druggists Circular.
Published July 1900, New York by William O. Allison.
72 pages. Text in English. Nice assortment of dated advertising as well, often illustrated.

This includes a special 2 pp. supplemental color sheet bound in which has an incredible full page color ad depicting a nude woman on top of a product bottle.

Very rare turn of the 19th/20th century American trade magazine with pleasing visual content.

Binding remains clean, tight, and sound, various mostly small signs of age, time and handling, nothing offensive or major. Overall a nice looking example.

Small age flaws or defects include possible random old creasing, edge chipping, small light old staining, rear cover with small piece missing at top corner, etc. Overall entirely acceptable example of what is likely a scarce survival. The pictures give a very good sense of how the item survives.

Virtually all periodicals of this era are somewhat scarce today as loose complete issues. Like most random survivals of old periodical printing, any specific example (like this one) is likely among a relative handful still extant. As each decade goes back from 1950, the rate of scarcity for any specific magazine or paper item increases noticeably.

Text block remains overall clean, and displays a pleasing age patina.

Magazine remains attractive on the shelf. It displays a pleasing and unique age patina and is in nice antiquarian condition, any age flaws easy to overlook or forgive. 

Please review photos for more detail and our best attempt to convey how this antique item survives. This item is not new- it is old and has been handled by different owners in the past.
