    Notes:

    J. Russell Spalding was a Boston Chemist/Apothecary from around 1851 until 1862. His primary business address was on Tremont Row, initially at #23. The Boston Directory in 1862 listed E. M. Skinner as the successor to J. Russell Spalding at the same address. Spalding sold several other proprietary medicines, in addition to his hair preparations. In 1852 and 1853, along with his other products, Spalding was selling “Twigg’s Hair Dye.”
     The Rosemary was advertised starting around 1852. The product at that time, made all the usual claims for hair preparations, plus it claimed to “cure headache,” and “kill hair eaters.” In 1865, E. M. Skinner was still selling the Rosemary, and he said that it had been selling for 14 years.
     Products: Rosemary & Castor Oil | Twigg’s Hair Dye.
