Mémorial Thérapeutique Médications Part Bénéficiaire
Beneficiary Share, Société du Journal "Le Mémorial de Thérapeutique Appliquée", Paris, pharmacy allegories, rare medical scripophily.
Atypical and sought-after document: Bearer Beneficiary Share of the Société du Journal "Le Mémorial de Thérapeutique Appliquée et des Médications Sélectionnées", a public limited company based in Paris. This scientific publication, aimed at doctors and pharmacists, was published at the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries to disseminate advances in pharmacopoeia and clinical therapies of the time. Issue number 01.286. The soft pink design is exceptional: two female allegories (Medicine and Pharmacy) flank an apothecary's still, medieval pharmacy scenes, herbariums, mortars — a whole iconography linked to medical art rarely seen in scripophily. Marked "CANCELLED" in diagonal red overprint. Three handwritten signatures of directors. Complete sheet of coupons attached on the right. An ideal piece for a medical or pharmaceutical collection, specialized press scripophily, or enthusiasts of Belle Époque scientific iconography. The thematic rarity compensates for the cancellation. A perfect document for a medical office display, an old pharmacy, or a scientific library.
