Hobson’s Anti Skeeter was developed specifically to relieve the after-effects from the bite of a mosquito; in other words, to soothe that nasty itch. This chemical concoction, which just might be able to knock a dead horse off its feet, was manufactured by the Pfeiffer Chemical Company of New York and St. Louis, Missouri. Founded in 1901 by Henry Pfeiffer (1857-1939), the company was a family-owned business that Henry operated with his younger brother, G. A. (Gustavus Adolphus) Pfeiffer (1872-1953). The son of German immigrants, Henry was born in Pennsylvania but grew up in Cedar Falls, Iowa. Henry got his start in the chemical industry as a clerk in a retail drugstore in Cedar Falls. By the time he was in his thirties, he had moved to St. Louis and had started his own wholesale drug business.
