Description
An account of the resource
The collectible ink blotters in the AIHP collection were produced by Parke, Davis & Company in the 1930s and 1940s to advertise pharmaceutical products; they measure 7 by 3 1/2 inches. They carry eye-catching visual images and pack a lot of information into a small space: the key ingredients in a drug or medicine, the health complaints it addressed, and recommended dosages. William Helfand donated this collection of ink blotters to the American Institute of the History of Pharmacy.
The ink blotter, a device to help blot out leaks and smears from fountain pens, took many forms over the years. At one time, ink blotters were made into small cards made of absorbent paper, and because they were so widely used, they became popular surfaces on which to advertise products and services. With the advent of the ballpoint pen after World War II, the use of fountain pens declined, and ink blotters were no longer necessary.

Description
An account of the resource
The collectible ink blotters in the AIHP collection were produced by Parke, Davis & Company in the 1930s and 1940s to advertise pharmaceutical products; they measure 7 by 3 1/2 inches. They carry eye-catching visual images and pack a lot of information into a small space: the key ingredients in a drug or medicine, the health complaints it addressed, and recommended dosages. William Helfand donated this collection of ink blotters to the American Institute of the History of Pharmacy.
The ink blotter, a device to help blot out leaks and smears from fountain pens, took many forms over the years. At one time, ink blotters were made into small cards made of absorbent paper, and because they were so widely used, they became popular surfaces on which to advertise products and services. With the advent of the ballpoint pen after World War II, the use of fountain pens declined, and ink blotters were no longer necessary.

William Helfand donated this collection of ink blotters to the American Institute of the History of Pharmacy.
The ink blotter, a device to help blot out leaks and smears from fountain pens, took many forms over the years. At one time, ink blotters were made into small cards made of absorbent paper, and because they were so widely used, they became popular surfaces on which to advertise products and services. With the advent of the ballpoint pen after World War II, the use of fountain pens declined, and ink blotters were no longer necessary.

The ink blotter, a device to help blot out leaks and smears from fountain pens, took many forms over the years. At one time, ink blotters were made into small cards made of absorbent paper, and because they were so widely used, they became popular surfaces on which to advertise products and services. With the advent of the ballpoint pen after World War II, the use of fountain pens declined, and ink blotters were no longer necessary.

Description
An account of the resource
The collectible ink blotters in the AIHP collection were produced by Parke, Davis & Company in the 1930s and 1940s to advertise pharmaceutical products; they measure 7 by 3 1/2 inches. They carry eye-catching visual images and pack a lot of information into a small space: the key ingredients in a drug or medicine, the health complaints it addressed, and recommended dosages. William Helfand donated this collection of ink blotters to the American Institute of the History of Pharmacy.
The ink blotter, a device to help blot out leaks and smears from fountain pens, took many forms over the years.
