notes: label: Description
content: This object is part of a collection donated to the museum in 1989 by James P. Cragg, Jr. and Marie S. Cragg, owners of the Irvington Pharmacy located at 4123 Frederick Ave., Baltimore, Maryland. Pharmacist James P. Cragg, Jr., known as “Dr. Tim” to his customers, worked at the pharmacy from the 1940s until his retirement at the end of 1988. The business had been in the family since 1926 when Cragg's uncle, John F. Wannenwetsch, and pharmacist Walter Patterson purchased the old Knight & Andrews drugstore. In 1959 the Irvington Pharmacy became a Rexall franchise, and two large orange and blue Rexall signs were added to the art deco façade of the drugstore. The Cragg’s sold the store when Dr. Tim retired and one of the exterior signs along with several pharmaceutical products and drugstore labels were donated to the Smithsonian.
