Description Hand colorized 1890Original title: Hall's Pharmacy, Fourth and Chestnut Sts., Mifflinburg, Pa.Photographer: UnknownLocation: Fourth and Chestnut St, Mifflinburg, PADuring the late 1800's and early 1900's, soda fountains were popular in American pharmacies. Pharmacists would dispense soda water from a soda fountain, which were often located in the front window or the back of the store.The first soda fountains were introduced in the 1950's, and became popular due to the medicinal properties of soda water. Pharmacists believed that the carbonated water had therapeutic benefits. They added flavored syrups to the water to make it more palatable.By the 1890's, they had a much wider variety of flavors, added things like ice cream, egg creams. Then later on cake, pie, and lunch. Eventually each of these broke free and they had separate soda fountains, without medicine, ice cream without soda, lunch without either two, and medicine without any kind of food.
Mike Savad, Westfield, NJ Member Since August 2009 Artist Statement My name is Mike Savad, I create one of a kind creations. Photo realistic is what people think of first. There are many themes, flowers, porches, and local Suburban Scenes, some city, some urban. I also have many Job inspired images that cover a quite a range. If your looking for a gift for your Pharmacist, Doctor, Dentist, Lawyer, Barber, Gardner, Fireman etc, there should be something there for you. These will look very nice hanging on your wall, or in a waiting room, even a hotel room. My art is inspired by Norman Rockwell and Paintings from the time of the Renaissance.
