21613Advertising handbill approximately 8.5 x 5.5 inches illustrated with a wonderful or not depending on your point of view image of "A Flea Magnified." Some staining old folding creases. Joseph Fusch trademarked his Eureka Insect Exterminator--guaranteed to kill fleas flies mosquitoes bed bugs ants moths lice and cockroaches without harm to people or animals--in 1901.

The back of the handbill offers "some valuable suggestions and recipes worth saving" which could also be found on each can of Eureka Insect Exterminator.
