EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the late 19th century, immersing us in an era where advertising played a pivotal role in shaping public opinion. The image showcases an advertisement for Dr. J. H. McLeans Strengthening Cordial and Blood Purifier from his Family Almanac of 1874, a time when patent medicines were prevalent. The engraving depicts a distinguished-looking doctor, presumably Dr. J. H. McLean himself, proudly promoting his medicinal concoction as the ultimate solution to various ailments that plagued American society at the time. The text surrounding the image emphasizes its efficacy in strengthening one's health and purifying their blood. However, this advertisement also sheds light on the darker side of late 19th-century America – the prevalence of quackery and fraudulent claims within the medical industry. While patent medicines promised miraculous results, they often lacked scientific backing or genuine therapeutic value. Despite these concerns, this print serves as a historical artifact that allows us to reflect upon our past understanding of medicine and how it has evolved over time. It reminds us of the importance of critical thinking when evaluating healthcare products and reinforces our appreciation for advancements in evidence-based medicine. As we gaze upon this intriguing piece from The Granger Collection, we are transported to an era where advertisements held immense power over public perception – both enlightening and deceiving individuals seeking relief from illness through patent medicine solutions.
