Painkiller

1885? A Booklet of 7 black and white fable illustrations advertising Painkiller produced by Davis & Lawrence Company, NY.  $26.01 from Jacquelilne Lazusky, Pinehurst, NC, through eBay, June, '15.

Though the cover is colored, the internal pictures on each right-hand page are black-and-white reproductions of cards used for J. & P. Coats Spool Cotton, McPhail Pianos, Emerson Pianos.  The surprise is all the greater because I have found a booklet in the same format that does use colored versions of the pictures: Wright's Pills
