Postcard of Rats-Apotheke in Lemgo, Germany. Card features a black and white photo reproduction of the outside of the drugstore. On the right is a three or four story building, with a round sign of "Apotheke" in front of columned windows. Above the sign are six busts of men, with some other small sculptures on the building. Below the windows are two grates, and on the left is a lamp. The building is on a street corner, with a sidewalk and cobblestone street. Some people are on the left of the drugstore, near a set of stairs. Across the street on the left are more buildings, all with tiled roofs and some with Gothic-like architecture. The closest buildings to the drugstore have vines growing on them, the left building's sign covered.
