Very Rare pharmaceutical mortar & pestle 42nd Edition Schering NCPA Tribute CollectibleIn 1963 Schering Corporation started to promote one of their OTC medications by giving away a mortar & pestle to pharmacists who purchased a display from Schering. A mortar & pestle was placed in each display as thanks for purchasing the display from Schering. Each year Schering would have a different design and shape for each mortar & pestle. The type of design or theme for each mortar & pestle was dependent on whomever was in charge of the project for that year or whichever division was responsible and was going to foot the bill to have the mortar & pestles produced. Themes were generally sought for in pharmacy journals, books, or other memorabilia and usually centered on commemoration of an important person or special event that contributed to pharmacy.Schering no longer produces these rare, highly collectible mortar & pestles.Included:Mortar (front and back shown)Matching Pestle (Schering logo and "Schering Plough")Original Tribute paperworkOriginal Collector's boxMortar and Pestle weighs 2 lb 6 oz.Posted with eBay Mobile
