    Rexall was a drugstore which means a 5 and Dime with pharmacy. So I will count this as a 5 and Dime item. That is a new CW I am starting with this item.
    Looks like a 1950s item or for sometime before the end of alcohol sold as medicine. Yes there still is Nyquil but this is 82%. There are dosages even for children. Well it will keep them quiet for a bit.
    Often seen and look great as an old bottle with no label or lid. Also looks good with the label and a bit of the contents.

      NOW we know why so many liked the 50's. Most everyone were medicated.

      They still make this item and still sold at a lot of drug stores. The 82% sounds like a draw to all the sniffers and rub-e-dub drinkers out there.

      Thank you very much Phil. I am sure it has medicinal purposes.
