Very cute and well done capture, Mary!!! I guess after a little shot of tar, you would feel a little better. All the bad stuff would be coated over. lol #10165124

A real taste of the olden days, Mary! All the medicines seemed to come in those shape bottles, almost like something from the medicine man! Great capture of them! #10167494

Wonder what the side effects were? ... Stomach Pains, Vomiting, Diarrhea? LOL! Don't think I could swallow the stuff! ... although the Wild Cherry Flavour might drown out the bad taste of the tar! In any case, this was an awesome find and capture! Excellent and interesting work, Mary! Love it! :) #10167663
