Penis Reduction in the news
- Circumcision (male) - Mayo ClinicCircumcision is a surgery to remove the skin that covers the tip of the penis, also called the foreskin. The procedure is fairly common for newborn boys in parts of the world, including the United States. Circumcision later in life can be done, but it has more risks and recovery may take longer.
- Erectile dysfunction - Symptoms and causes - Mayo ClinicErectile dysfunction means not being able to get and keep an erection firm enough for sexual activity. It also is called impotence. Having erection trouble from time to time isn't always a cause for concern. But if erectile dysfunction is ongoing, it can cause stress, affect self-confidence and add to challenges with a partner. Problems […]

- Peyronie disease - Diagnosis and treatment - Mayo ClinicThe penis is straightened, and the excess tissue on what had been the outer side of the curve is cinched together by placing a series of stitches or "tucks." The final penile length will depend on the length of the shorter side — the side with the scarring from Peyronie disease.
- Penis fracture: Is it possible? - Mayo ClinicYes. It's called a penis fracture. This isn't a common injury. But trauma to an erect penis can cause it. A penis fracture differs from other fractures in the body. That's because the penis has no bones. Instead, the penis becomes firm during an erection when two spongy tubes on the top side of the […]
An old ad that I found in the files…
Posted by richard in Founder's Blog
A couple days ago I promised I’d start scanning in and posting some of the ads that I’ve found in the files from when grandad and Uncle Piccilo were running the business. Â Here’s one that must have run sometime in the late 1950s, because that’s when they were in Minnetonka and using the given PO box. Â All I have is a tear sheet, but I suspect this ad ran in the back third of Popular Mechanics.
I suspect this ad was created by either Piccillo or perhaps by Baylord & Associates, which was the New York advertising firm that they worked with for most of the 1950s and early 1960s. Eventually they moved over to Grant & Grant, a different firm in New York, and sales took off around 1964.
Note that the price for a month supply was $3, which at the time included shipping. Â Based on the customer records I’ve seen, I suspect that they were selling about 1500 or so bottles a month, although about 2/3 of those were to “repeat” customers.
Richard was also trying to get certifications from various medical societies around this time; maybe next I’ll post the ad I found showing a doctor who recommended that most of his male patients take these.
