BUSINESSES 9

The existence of the "Darrtown Med. Co." is documented by the following 1902 newspaper advertisement.

This is what we don't know about the German Med. Co.:

> What skill set was required of "boozers, chasers, knockers, liars and thieves" ... and why would the business seek to employ them?

> What kind of service or product did this business provide?

> What the abbreviation "Med" mean?

> What stamps were to be saved and what was the $8 limit?

> Who was the owner and/or manager of the business?

From the advertisement, we know this about the German Med. Co.:

> It had a manager

> It had a mailing address of  "Darrtown, Ohio."

> It wanted "all 'round performers."

> It sought "boozers, chasers, knockers, liars and thieves."

Our research department turned up additional information that suggests the Darrtown Med. Co. may have been in the entertainment business. Click the link at right to see more about the newspaper that published the advertisement.
