5 items. 1902 pictorial letterhead with cover to Mr. Lukens in Auburn, CA re product-.3" tear. 3 promo pamphlets for the Pacific Pine Needle Co. The Company was based in San Francisco with another office in Grants Pass, Oregon. The two pamphlets are folded four pp pieces. One describes the products and info on the company, and the other specifically lists the products. Of particular interest are "Pinolea", a "cure" for rheumatism; Pine Needle oil; Pinoleum, a cough syrup. These "cures" were based on Native American curative potions, as well as old recipes from Franciscan and Dominican "Fathers"..
