    From the days of Al Capone, speakeasies and moonshine this was the only legal way to drink liquor in the US!
    This prescription has poppies on the top corners, fleur-de-lys on the bottom, and spider-webbed borders!
    The whiskey was prescribed for Jam

    ey
    , by Dr. F. A. McMullin, on August 8, 1928, by Pharmacist, John Smart, of Smart's Drug Store, in Philadelphia, PA.
    It was printed by the US Treasury Department on beautiful paper, that was also used for US currency. In the center is the old Treasury Seal with the Latin inscription, "Thesaur. Amer. Septent. Sigil.". When you hold this prescription up to the light, PROHIBITION is watermarked, as with the metal strips that are used in U.S. bills today, the graphics are GREAT!
