Michael Geschlecht Posted September 6, 2017 Share #2342 Posted September 6, 2017 Hello JD, Do the letters "A" within circles have anything to do with what is being taught or where the teaching is taking place? Best regards, Michael Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

pop Posted September 12, 2017 Share #2349 Posted September 12, 2017 The logical conclusion would lead to a museum (being part of the educational system) of Apothecary (being one of the disciplines closely associated with medicine, supported by the A logo), unless the A is a veiled reference to one of the freemasonry symbols. But then, a lodge would not really count as an educational site, would it? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But then, a lodge would not really count as an educational site, would it? Museum yes. Part of educational system no. The A symbol has nothing to do with Apothecary. There is no symbolic A symbol in Freemasonry. A Masonic Lodge is most definitely an educational place. This building is not a Lodge. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

stuny Posted September 12, 2017 Share #2355 Posted September 12, 2017 If I recall properly, Dr. Pepper, the soft drink, was created by a pharmacist who went by the name of Dr. Pepper. At that time pharmacies had soda fountains, which is where the drink was born. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdlaing Posted September 12, 2017 Share #2356 Posted September 12, 2017 If I recall properly, Dr. Pepper, the soft drink, was created by a pharmacist who went by the name of Dr. Pepper. At that time pharmacies had soda fountains, which is where the drink was born. Invented by Charles Alderton in Morrison's Old Corner Drug Store in Waco, Texas. A pharmacist. He then gave the formula to Wade Morrison, the Drug Store owner who named it Dr. Pepper. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

adan Posted September 12, 2017 Share #2358 Posted September 12, 2017 (edited) Remember that Coca-Cola got its name from a certain South American drug-plant that was included in the original recipe. Coke was originally marketed as a "patent medicine." And the roots flavoring root beer or Sarsparilla (sassafras or smilax ornata) were also considered to have medicinal qualities. As does the quinine in tonic water. "Medicinal" botanicals and spices, especially tropical ones, were quite the rage at one point. Eventually, as pharmacological claims became more regulated, many "patent medicines" dropped their medicinal claims in favor of simply being tasty and refreshing "soft drinks." Although caffeine remains a drug included in many soft drinks. BTW the creator of Dr. Pepper was pharmacist Charles C. Alderton, which may explain the circled-A symbol on the building. The recipe for Dr. Pepper is not public - and has probably changed somewhat since 1885. Rumored to contain prune juice at one point, but the company says not. The clone sold by Coke ("Mr. PiBB") is listed as a "spicy cherry soda" - which may be a hint. The "10. 2. 4." originally in the Dr. Pepper logo reflected the "dosage regimen" of three times per day.

Michael Hiles Posted September 12, 2017 Share #2359 Posted September 12, 2017 (edited) This is an early tip of my hat to one of the greatest architectural photographs ever made. If you know any 19th century photographs, you should know the original picture, and the place where this was made. If you can name the original picture and photographer, you will be entered in a draw for a fabulous prize to be awarded when I get around to it. Welcome, dear visitor!

adan Posted September 13, 2017 Share #2360 Posted September 13, 2017 Chapter House Steps, Wells Cathedral - photographed as A Sea of Steps, Frederick H. Evans, 1900 (some platinum prints dated 1903) Sorry - but I read the TIME/LIFE book series on photography in 1971, right on the cusp of switching from architecture to photography as a career, and Evans' picture was frontispiece for one of the chapters - branded into my brain 47 years ago. BTW - a very interesting interpretation of your own.... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
