<p>[QUOTE=&quot;fretboard, post: 7761769, member: 19765&quot;]I used to work in the Health Industry so as a result, I picked up stuff related to the health field including this Quack Medicine Device!&nbsp; If anyone here has any Quack Medicine Tokens or other stuff, feel free to post a pic!&nbsp; <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie8" alt=":D" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />&nbsp; I picked this up years ago, off of the bay so when I saw another one listed for sale recently, I was taken aback to see the asking price.&nbsp; That said, there are a couple other ones for sale on ebay with cheaper asking prices.&nbsp; The below information is from the link provided below and if Rulau truly noted that there were only two complete puzzles known, he was wrong!&nbsp; <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie50" alt=":happy:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><b>&quot;Rulau notes that only two complete puzzles are known!</b>&nbsp; <i>J. Garst was the proprietor of Phenyo Caffein Co., a medicine manufacturer.&nbsp; Two trade tokens from this issuer form parts of this rare puzzle, Ma-WC 12 and 13. Both tokens are uniface brass discs at the end of a complicated assembly of wire loops, rings and wooden beads. One token gives instructions on how to work the puzzle, and the other is an advertisement for a caffein remedy: CHILIAN PUZZLE / REMOVE / THE RING / AND / PUT IT ON / AGAIN, and PHENYO CAFFEIN / CURES / HEADACHE / AND / NEURALGIA /PHENYO C. CO. / WORCESTER / MASS.&quot;</i></p><p><br /></p><p><a href="https://www.ebay.com/itm/254747884129?hash=item3b50283a61:g:BYwAAOSwYzBfhd3B" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.ebay.com/itm/254747884129?hash=item3b50283a61:g:BYwAAOSwYzBfhd3B" rel="nofollow">https://www.ebay.com/itm/254747884129?hash=item3b50283a61:g:BYwAAOSwYzBfhd3B</a></p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1330855[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1330856[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1330857[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1330858[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1330859[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1330860[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1330861[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
