One of the Pinkham slogans was "A baby in every bottle."
Considering the amount of alcohol in a bottle ! well ! after imbibing a bottle's worth of the liquid - for more inhibited ladies of older times - those inhibitions would have dropped like an anvil into water!
There was a New Hampshire family who lived nearby who inherited the Pinkham fortune and were living very well by "clipping the coupons" well into the 1970s.
