EDITORS COMMENTS
This advertisement from the 1890s showcases Homocea, a soothing ointment designed to provide relief for babies suffering from various ailments, including croup and other respiratory conditions such as coughs and bronchitis. The image features a concerned mother gently touching her child's chest as he lies in his cot, while a father looks on with a letter in hand, perhaps seeking advice or information about the new remedy. The advertisement, available from Hooper, Chemist, located on King William Street in London, promises quick and effective relief for these common childhood conditions. The use of a simple yet heartfelt scene highlights the importance of caring for a sick child during this time, and the hope that Homocea could bring comfort and relief to both parents and their little ones. This poignant image offers a glimpse into the past, showcasing the concerns and anxieties of parents during the late 19th century and the remedies they relied on to help their children through difficult times.
