EVB7068382: A 1850 tobacco sign depicts men involved in a tobacco transaction on a pier. An ocean going ship sails in the distance, while large barrels of tobacco sit on the pier, possibly waiting for a buyer. The elaborately carved frame, displays a Caduceus, a Winged Rod With Twisting Serpents, suggesting the medical qualities once ascribed to tobacco. Above the Caduceus, is the winged cap of Hermes (Mercury) the god of trade (oil on wood) / Bridgeman Images
