Hardcover. Condizione: Very good-. First Edition. Quarto, 8pp. of text, plus 152pp. of ruled leaves. First leaf used, ELSE BLANK. In the publisher's 3/4 maroon over red-brown cloth, about very good, with wear to the corners and spotting to the cloth, but clean, crisp, and bright internally. Much more interesting than many business-specific ledger books of the period, this one contains 8 pages of printed text containing the full text of the 1914 Harrison Narcotics Tax Act (a. k. a. Opium and Coca Leaves Trade Restrictions Act). Clearly the brand new law (passed at the end of the year right before publication of this volume) was making a number of druggists nervous, considering the new regulations on the products that they sold on a daily basis, and thus this publisher of ledger books felt compelled to include the law in the otherwise blank ledger books. Though there is only one page of recorded sales, the contents are quite impressive. Nearly all sales are for codeine, morphine, and cocaine. OCLC notes one single physical holding, at U-Wisconsin. Another dozen holdings are all digital. An excellent volume of American drug and pharmacological history.…

Hardcover. Condizione: Good. 4to, hardcover, no dj. Bound in maroon quarter cloth & corners, marbled paper-covered boards; no spine lettering. A record-keeping book to aid pharmacists in complying with the so-called Harrison Narcotics Tax Act, according to which "Under the Regulations of the New Federal Anti-Narcotic Law which goes into effect March 1, 1915, each druggist must keep a separate prescription that he fills for any of the drugs and preparations that come within this law; OR he must keep a Record book which shows: -- (1) the number of prescriptions, (2) the name of the physician or surgeon, and (3) the name of the person for whom such prescription was filled". Volume contains 8 pp. of the text of the law approved by Act of Congress December 17, 1914 (International Revenue Regulations No. 35, issued January 15, 1915), followed by 152 pages of lined, ruled blank pages with columns for a pharmacist to fill in date, prescription number, prescribing doctor, patient name, and the name of the dispenser (pharmacist). Good condition. Board edges rubbed, some chipping around edges of marbled paper covering boards; inner front & rear hinges neatly reinforced. This copy has the first 4 of the lined pages filled out in an elegantly handwritten script by what appears to have been a two-man pharmacy in the town of Winooski, Chittenden County, Vermont, near Burlington: two pharmacist names appear repeatedly, along with several prescribing town doctors. Entries span from March 1915 to June 1916.…
