Summary edit

Description
English: "Doctor Bokanky, the street herbalist", from Henry Mayhew's "London Labour and the London Poor" v.1, 1851. Caption reads: "Now then for the Kilabonca Root, that was brought from Madras in the East Indies. It'll cure the tooth-ache, head-ache, giddiness in the head, dimness of sight, rheumatics in the head, and is highly recommended for the ague; never known to fail; and I've sold it for this six and twenty year. From one penny to sixpence the packet. The best article in England." From a daguerreotype by Beard.
