Price cutting was ruining the trade, opium was in the news, and dignity in business was up for debate: welcome to the Canadian drugstore of August 1889. This early issue of the Canadian Druggist mixes editorials, pharmacists' aids, and period advertisements from suppliers like the Lyman Brothers. Trade journalism with its sleeves rolled up. A time machine that smells faintly of camphor.

Every copy includes a printable PDF edition, a beautifully typeset book you can print, mark up in the margins, and keep on your shelf. Yours the moment you own it.
