Brass Mortar Souvenir from the Louis J Dufilho Jr Pharmacy Museum

Description

Brass Mortar Louis J Dufilho Jr Pharmacy Museum Souvenir.  Item is very heavy (>1.4 lbs).  Approx 2.5 in tall and 2.5 in diameter.  Great patina.  One side of mortar says:  Louis J Dufilho Jr, Rx, America's First Licensed Practicing Pharmacist 1816 and on base something like Secundum Abtem (this is on both sides).  The other side says something like Pharmace Trancaise, Pharmacy Museum, Rx and Secundum Abtem.  Hard to read so not sure if everything is accurate.  I had the pestel but it broke after dropping it; it was not brass! Please see photos.  Selling as is.
