EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this page from The Graphic, dated August 1889. A vibrant mosaic of Victorian advertisements, this image offers a glimpse into the consumer culture of the late 19th century. Beginning at the top left, we find Nuda Veritas, the hair restorer, promising to "restore the natural beauty and lustre of hair." Below it, Nubian blacking, a liquid meant for polishing boots and shoes, boasts of its ability to "preserve the brightness and brilliancy of leather." Moving on, we encounter Norton's Camomile Pills, a popular remedy for indigestion, and Beetham's Glycerin and Cucumber, an emollient milk for preserving and beautifying the skin. Further down, we find Mr. C.B. Harness's electropathic belt, touted as a means to promote health, strength, and vitality. The page continues with Dr. J. Collis Brown's Chlorodyne, a medicine used to treat cholera, dysentery, and diarrhea. Below it, advice for dyspeptics is offered, followed by an advertisement for the Kropp Razor. Peptonized Cocoa and Milk, Pure Irish linen goods, Champion Ice Machine, Swanbill Belts, figure improver made of woven silk, Spearmans Serges, summer clothing, Samuel Fox & Co umbrellas, Eau D'Ambert, a French remedy for indigestion, spasms, dyspepsia, bilious headaches, and abdominal pains, Invigorating Lavender Salts, and a bottle of perfume are some of the other advertisements that adorn this page. Lastly, we come across G.E. Lewiss treble grip gun, an intriguing addition to this diverse collection of Victorian advertisements. This page is a testament to the variety and selection of goods and services that were available to consumers during this era, offering a fascinating glimpse into the past.
