Commentaires : | This glass medicine bottle of Rawleighs Ready Relief was manufactured by W.T. Rawleigh Co. Ltd. This company had locations in both Montreal, Quebec and Winnipeg, Manitoba. The artifact had been in the home of the donors paternal grandmother, Mrs. Edna Thurber, and was found as part of her possessions when she passed away in the early 1960s. Rawleigh patent medicine was sold by traveling salesmen who came to the Islands on regularly scheduled trips, and went door-to-door selling products such as medicines and cleaning supplies. |
