Description
Front of card depicts a bad-dressed man standing in some sort of clinic or barber-shop. He is holding two coats in his hands. One coat is clean and fancy; another one is ragged and dirty. The citation at the bottom of the card says: “I wonder which is mine!” Original trade card forms part of: Collection no. 311, History & Special Collections for the Sciences, Louise M. Darling Biomedical Library, UCLA. Additional card text: Compliments of Bowen & Packard. Additional text from back of card: “Sure Pop,” For Corns. If there is anything positively destructive to human happiness, it is corns. Men and Women suffer untold misery, and break the commandments by quoting scripture backwards from year to year because of corns. Now all this misery and breaking of the commandments can be squelched by using Bowen’s Corn Eradicator… Just use it according to directions, and you can knock any corn higher than a kite…
