There are some other medicine companies that use dragons in their vignette, although they are somewhat more difficult to see. These include Home Bitters (Rumsey lots 359-362), J.A. Jackson (Rumsey lots 375-376), and Lippmann Bitters (Rumsey lots 405-408) |

Holy Snappers! For a mythical beastie, there sure are a lot of dragons out there. After wading through 15 pages, I fear my eye brows have been singed off. Here's another from the Netherlands, 1945. Lion and Dragon, signifying the Netherland's liberation or 'rising again.  |
