If you ever visit New Orleans be sure to tour the pharmacy museum. Located in an actual former pharmacy in the French Quarter, it is filled with examples of this sort of thing along with arcane medical tools that look like something from Dead Ringers. It gives some really great insight into the state of medicine at the time as well as the exploitation perpetrated by quacks.
