I heard from a gentleman named Steve Ketcham who collects all manner of “early American bottles, advertising, Red Wing stoneware, breweriana, country store and drug store memorabilia.” Much of his wonderful collection can be seen at his website. He provided more information about an old cribbage board from the Lash’s drug company; if I hadn’t met Peter Leach a few weeks ago I wouldn’t have seen it before, but it’s a wonderful relic from a time when the Food and Drug Administration was whatever your parents said you could and couldn’t eat…or made you eat.
