Syrup of Figs. For Every Occasion.

oct 30 1902 figs

This ad from the October 30, 1902 Chatham Record lectures us on the medicinal properties of figs and warns that only California Fig Syrup Co. is the genuine article.

The illustration makes me wish the product were still available. If California Fig Syrup made our heroine any healthier she’d need smelling salts.
