Measurements: • Height: 17 inches • Width: 10 inches >> Corner damage on Nose Drops piece. General creasing, corner, edge, and surface wear. Please view all photos carefully, as they are part of the description. Pair of original late 1940s- early 1950s die-cut pharmacy display advertising Cold Capsules and Nose Drops with bright mid-century lithography, bold red-and-yellow product circles, and expressive illustrations showing relief from cold symptoms. The original easel back is intact, allowing it to stand as it would have on a mid-century drugstore counter. Cold remedies like these were commonly made by smaller pharmaceutical manufacturers that supplied independent drugstores with colorful point-of-purchase materials after WWII. These companies promoted capsule-and-drop combinations as fast, convenient relief in a growing over-the-counter market, and displays like this helped pharmacies highlight seasonal cold-medicine products for customers.
