An original pharmacist's invoice for the supply of drugs and syringes to Aleister Crowley, with two receipts for payment made attached.

Torquay, England: 1941. A single 10" x 5" printed pharmacist's invoice, with the printed heading Quant, Wellswood, Torquay. The invoice is made out (by hand) to "Mr Crowley, The Gardens" (Crowley's address at the time) and dated "Feb 28, 1941" It lists supply of "the mixture" (probably either an atrophine-morphine mix or digitalis concotion that Crowley was sometimes given for his bronchitis, or a prescription for heroin to which he was then addicted) and 20 needles (syringes). Other supplies are listed, but the receipts - on two smaller pieces of paper - are pasted onto the invoice obscuring the details. An unusual curiosity. VG condition. Item #60328
