- Dirt in Loose Milk Shops
- Description
- This postcard produced by the New York Milk Committe's Committee for the Reduction of Infant Mortality reprints a July 26, 1911 NY Evening Post article entitled, "Dirt in Loose-Milk Shops." The article recounts the findings of the Committee's investigations, in coordination with the New York City Department of Health, into the bacterial contamination of milk sold in bulk. On the postcard verso a photo of sickly baby fed on contaminated milk is contrasted with the photo of a healthy baby under the question,"Is It Worth the Difference?"
