Pharmaceutical Trade Catalog Collection

The Pharmaceutical Trade Catalog Collection is one of the specialized holdings of the American Institute of the History of Pharmacy located at the UW-Madison School of Pharmacy. It is comprised of nearly 500 volumes dating from 1829 to 2000. Pharmaceutical trade catalogs are valuable to historians as they provide a picture into the stock of American drug stores of the period, including pricing and detailed illustrations of products and equipment. In addition, catalogs contain lists of drugs, chemicals, and medicines available to pharmacies. For more extensive information on this collection, view the website of the AIHP (https://aihp.org/) and click on the AIHP Collections Tab.
