One of the many advertising booklets produced to promote Dr. Pierce’s empire of quackery and the “Surgical Institute & Invalids’ Hotel” in Buffalo, NY, which included a unit devoted to women’s ailments and aggressively marketed to that audience. This edition of Neighborhood Gossip Dream Book relies almost entirely on typography and bold headlines. Less than four pages are devoted to dream interpretation and a few recipes, with the majority of the booklet repeating promotional messages in varying forms.
