Description

Card advertising Dr. Jayne's Expectorant (containing opium) and Dr. Jayne's Liniment. These were supposed to cure cold, cough, sore throat, bronchitis, asthma, whooping cough and consumption. The card shows two young boys in classical dress. One has a quill pen behind his ear, a scroll in his hand, looking at the other (in spectacles) who is holding open an oversized book, pointing to the words. A large, green branch with spiky leaves is growing up behind the book.
