Incredible Physician's Pharmacists Hand Written Formulas for Medicines Remedies

Description

I have been in the business for 50 years -- this is the first time I have come across such a complete pharmacist or physician's recipe box for all types of drugs and cures. This journal is dating from 1826 and is entitled Formulae Medicamentorium A Compendium of the Modern Practical Physic 1826. This is bound in its original leather marbelized cardboard binding. This has an extraordinary amount of remedies, cures, and compounds of herbs. Also, there are cutouts from newspapers and periodicals posted here and there throughout the journal. There is everything from cough remedies upward. Practical recipes for waterproofing from boots to curing or treating diphtheria. One of the most interesting ledgers I have handled this entire time. We are selling this as we found it out of the estate. Invaluable information. Contains over 150 pages of recipes, etc. The handwriting is easily readable - not scribbled. Painstakingly written in a discernable language and with no smearing of ink. We are pricing this ledger in its entirety for 00 which might be a bargain. The journal is 13 1/3" tall x 8" wide. In very good condition for its age. Covers have wear along the edges and the leather spine has wear and losses.
