Nice Veterinary - Horses & Cattle w/ CANNABIS Unusual Rawleigh's Medicine bottle with outer wrapper. The wrapper lists ingredients on the front including Canabis Sativa and has a nice picture of what I assume is Rawleigh himself. I don't know what the bottle is like but do not see any damage = I tried to move the string but risked damage to the wrapper so I quit. As you can see the wrapper is a little rough but still fairly respectable. A nice Veterinary, Medicinal, or Drugstore item for your collection.
WANT TO SEE MORE PICTURES:
Due to download/space limitations, it is all but impossible to display the hundreds of Cannabis Antique Pictures that the museum has accumulated. However, they are available on CD-ROM. Please contact the museum for more info.
