This print, dated 1886, showcases an intriguing blend of medicine, history, and mythology. At the heart of the image is Dr. M.A. Simmons, a pioneering figure in the realm of liver medicine. He is depicted selling his elixir from a horse-drawn buggy in front of his one-story laboratory building, transporting the remedy to those in need in the early 1840s. The serene scene of Dr. Simmons and his carriage is juxtaposed with an intense battle scene titled "Custer's Last Fight," a nod to the famous clash that took place in 1876. The portrait of Dr. Simmons is accompanied by portraits of the medicine's owners, their dedication to the creation and distribution of this liver medicine evident in their determined expressions. The background reveals a progression of the laboratory, growing from a one-story building to a grand four-story structure in the 1880s. This visual narrative highlights the evolution of the company and the advancements made in the field of medicine during this time. The intricate details of the print, from the horse-drawn buggy to the battle scene and the laboratory, offer a glimpse into the past, allowing us to appreciate the history and the spirit of innovation that drove figures like Dr. M.A. Simmons to make significant strides in the medical world.
