I found this post card at a local junk shop today with an Australian Antarctic Territory Stamp and a post mark from the Aust. Antarctic Territory which I thought was pretty darn neat. I hope everyone else enjoys it.
Some additional info. This card is 1 of many sent out by Abbott Labs to doctors promoting their drug products. A website that has some more info on this practice is at http://www.geocities.com/deardrpc/ Mike in NYC / meostamps
Sodium Pentothal -the drug mentioned on the card-was given intravenously to cause unconsciousness for surgery--it's effect occurred in 45 seconds, but had to be continued at a regular IV drip rate to keep the patient "asleep". "count backwards from ten..."
