EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the turn of the century, specifically to the year 1900. It showcases an American advertisement for Bayer Pharmaceutical Products, with a particular focus on their revolutionary product - Aspirin. The vintage charm of this advertisement is evident in its design and typography, reflecting the early days of advertising in America. The bold lettering proudly proclaims "American Advertisement for Bayer Pharmaceutical Products" emphasizing both its national origin and association with a trusted pharmaceutical brand. However, what makes this ad even more intriguing is its historical context. At that time, Aspirin was not only known as a pain reliever but also as a narcotic medicine containing heroin. This fact adds layers of complexity to our understanding of early pharmaceutical practices. As we gaze at this piece from Granger Art on Demand, we are reminded of how far medical advancements have come since then. We can't help but marvel at the progress made by Bayer AG over the years while acknowledging that their journey began with products like these. Overall, this photograph serves as a fascinating window into American advertising history and highlights the evolution of medicine during that era. It captures an important moment when aspirin was just beginning to make its mark on society while shedding light on some lesser-known aspects surrounding its composition and usage at that time.
