They hired actual indians to tour the country in their travelling medicine shows, which according to eye witness accounts, were very entertaining in the days long before radio or television. The Kickapoo shows lasted for hours and during the intermissions, the indians would come out into the audience with baskets full of the KICKAPOO INDIAN OIL and other bottled medicines for sale by the company. The show would not resume until every bottle was sold! These travelling shows toured the country back in the 1880s and 1890s. Their "Principal Wigwam", (headquarters), was located in New Haven, Conn. This KICKAPOO INDIAN OIL bottle dates from the 1888-1890s period ........
