Description Advertisement showing the medicinal garden of patent medicine dealer Benjamin Mishler. A family and couple stand near the arched entrance of "Mishlers Garden" between two red stone buildings, possibly offices. Past the arch, women enter an enclosed promenade running through the center of the garden of trees, roots and plants. A yellow fence surrounds most of the property, except a section that is bordered by Lion Brewery, possibly another user of the garden. Also contains two promotions signed by S. H. Warwick, 324 N. Eighth St., Philadelphia offering $500 to any "graduated physician" who has a better cure than Mishler's Preparation of Gold and Sodium to "purify the blood" or treat "Syphilis, Scrofula, and Leprosy."
