Dr. R. V. Pierce's World's Dispensary Medical Association, Buffalo,
New York, U.S.A.
Ladies Note Book and Calendar (1914), complete
About women's diseases, cancer, digestive illness, fatigue, headache, female
weakness, gynecology, tumors, nervous diseases, patent medicine, and menstruation
American doctors in the 19th and early 20th centuries sometimes offered
their own medicines and diagnoses through the mail, among them Dr. R.V.
Pierce, probably the second biggest maker of these medicines after Mrs.
Lydia Pinkham.
This booklet typifies similar booklets in its extraordinary claims for
healing and its use of testimonials, which once got
his competitor into trouble.

Below: The paper booklet - a staple binds
it on the short side,
as below, which shows the back (above) and front covers - contains
pages measuring 3 1/4 x 5 1/2" (8.3 x 13.8 cm).
The color appears only on these
covers, not inside.
The 5.00 on the upper right corner probably
gives the
dollars someone paid for it.
