Philatelic Society of Lancaster County: Events and Revenues Leading to the Prohibition (Part 2)

Ron Lesher, a past president of the American Revenue Association and award-winning exhibitor, presents a stellar lecture featuring the taxation of legal alcohol during National Prohibition. It includes prescriptions for medicinal alcohol, sacramental wine, and industrial or non-beverage alcohol.

The story of National Prohibition includes a chapter of one state that thought they could allow the sale of alcohol if they taxed it and another chapter on some efforts to discourage home brewing by taxing malt.

You will not be disappointed by the scope, breadth and variety of artifacts that Ron has assembled.
