  • Against Pain | the Confluence
    Against Pain BY DavID L. STRAIGHT Although unusual for its sacrilegious image of a nun lifting her eyes towards the “heavenly” Antikamnia tablet, this 1898 large format (5” x 8”) trading card is typical of the formula that combined collectable pictures with printed product information on the verso. Tracing their origins from seventeenth-century London trade cards, trading cards evolved into our modern business cards. Trade cards, in the original sense of the word, referred to cards distributed by business proprietors to announce their trade or line of work. With the development of inexpensive color printing in the late nineteenth century, collecting and trading of these attractive cards became a popular hobby. (Collection of the author) The ailments that could be treated with one or two Antikamnia tablets ranged from toothache to Le Grippe (today, the flu) as well as “severe headaches, especially those of lawyers, students, bookkeepers, clerks, mothers, saleswomen, teachers, and nurses.” The tablets were also recommended as a preventative “before starting on an outing, and this includes tourists, picnickers, bicyclers, and in fact, anybody who is out in the sun and air all day, will entirely prevent that demoralizing headache which frequently mars the pleasure of such an occasion” or for “women on shopping tours.” (Collection of the author) 20 | The Confluence | Fall 2009 With palpable pain etched into Antikamnia tablets did not require a preparations containing acetanilid must her face and the enfolding wings prescription, the company sold primarily be clearly labeled, the Antikamnia to drug stores rather than to individuals. Company changed its formula of a powerful drug shielding the Most of its advertising, such as the cards for the domestic market, instead using victim from the satanic serpent of illustrated here, was directed towards acetaphenetidin, an acetanilid derivative.

Sim~ons, M.D.,LL.D. Editor and General Manager Emeril11s,American Medical Assot'iat·io11 VOLUME III Pazss o:v AMBRICAN MBDICAL ASSOCIATION 535 NOllTH DBAlUIOllN ST., CHICAGO, ILL. 1936 COPYRIGHT 1936 BY AMERICAN MEDICAL ASSOCIATION CuICAGO I !· Printed and Piiblislied in tlie United States of America FOREWORD It is unnecessary to remind those whose memory carries them back twenty five or thirty years, and who are at all interested in the subject, that during this period there has been a remarkable· change for the bet­ ter in the so-called "patent medicine" business ; that the deliberate mis­ representation and downright fraud that characterized much of the newspaper and magazine advertising of a quarter of a century ago is much less in evidence ; that the claims on labels and circulars which go with the bottle or package are now ultra-conservative compared with what they were. Several factors have been responsible for this change: The Great American Fraud series by Samuel Hopkins Adams published in Colliers' in 1905-6; the Ladies' Honie J oiirnal crusade of about the same time; the passage of the National Food and Drugs Act; the activities of federal and of some state health officials; the influence of the Better Business Bureau movement; the awakening of newspaper pub­ lishers to the fact that fraudulent medical advertising tended to destroy public confidence in all advertising-all of these, some of them more or less sporadic and ephemeral, were influential in bringing about the change.
