(MASSACHUSETTS - PIGS) [J.B. Learned M.D.] Since THE STRAWBERRY HILL PORK has been offered to take the place of the general market product for those who decline the latter, we are often asked wherein ours is superior... [first lines from printed circular] [N.P., but Strawberry Hill, Florence Massachusetts]: [s.n.], 1887. Illustrated 10 x 6 inches. Circular on color paper. Fine condition. Humorous piece that exhorts the superiority of Strawberry Hill Pork: “Being near the City of Northampton, our stock and methods are often inspected. Pigs grown from cows' milk and freshly prepared grains and vegetables, in clean open field, are more attractive than hogs fed upon swill and decomposing refuse often collected for them...” A wonderful graphic of a pig with the words “No Cholera Here!” boldly seen inside of its healthy bacon body.
