Dr. David Bishop Hand, 520 Spruce St., Scranton, PA, practiced medicine in Scranton for many years and invented a number of proprietary medicines. In 1889 he entered into a contract with Smith and Kline Company. Dr. Hand died in 1923 leaving a widow, a son and a daughter. Dr. Hand's widow died in 1950 and his son on March 16, 1953.

If you're interested in such detail, here's a link to a rather extensive biography and shall we say genealogical study on Dr. Hand and his ancestors, many of whom were notable citizens and some even participants in the Revolutionary War:

"It would seem that the artist was relatively famous back in the day, being none other than Haydon Jones, who had quite a career as a newspaper illustrator:" Quote:
:
Haydon Jones (1871-1954) was born in Ohio, and became a fairly well-known and definitely well-traveled illustrator who worked for a series of newspapers, including the New York Mail & Express, the San Francisco Examiner (where he covered a particularly gruesome murder trial, among other things), the New York World when it was owned by Joseph Pulitzer, and the Boston Herald. He also illustrated a number of books.
In 1898 Jones went to Cuba to cover the growing hostilities that eventually became the Spanish-American War, got taken prisoner by the Spanish and was traded back to the Americans, along with another war correspondent, for two Spanish officers.
His wife must have been a very patient and forbearing woman - he was all over the country in what seems like a fairly short time.
