This package of medicated flat sheets certainly looks old, but we have no way of determining just how old. It could date anywhere from the late 1850's to the early 1900's. The left side of the package says: 'The consumption of Paper is the measure of a nation's culture.' The right says: 'Toilet Paper is of great Medical and Sanitary value, and pronounced by the Medical profession: -- "The greatest boon the art of paper making has developed."'
