WA Pharmacy History Extract

Did you know that PSWA has an extensive collection of historical pharmacy books including reference books, pharmacopoeias and prescription books?

Some of the collection are from the 1700’s and others are of great significance as they have the signatures of the original owners including the first president of the PSWA, Edward Mayhew. Books have been donated by numerous pharmacists and their families over the years, including a large collection donated by Geoff Miller.

There are a number of duplicates in the collection and we would like to offer PSWA members an opportunity to purchase duplicate books. If you would like to view the collection or enquire about the books available for purchase, please email general@pswa.org.au.
