Three hundred and thirty four years ago, the colonization of the United States was in its infant stages. It was a full 55 years before a certain war hero named George was born, and an astounding 200 years before Benjamin Franklin became the father of electricity. It’s safe to say life was very different back then, but 1677 did mark the creation of the first medical publication in the United States. Resulting from the then recent epidemic of Small Pox and Measles, the 10”x15” poster was conceptualized by Dr. Thomas Thacher, and distributed in Boston, Massachusetts.
