Old tonic

[QuizmasterG]

How do you spell the name of the old tonic -

Phillosan, Philosan, Phillisan? - cannot find any other sources to spell this correctly.

Many thanks
Too young to remember!!

Thanks both - I really needed some old advert / picture to be absolutely sure. People do not always recollect properly - especially if they need Phillosan!!!1

I'm not certain of the number of letters 'L' there were, but I'm nearly certain it had a 'Y' rather than an 'I' and I'm absolutely certain it opened with 'PH' and not 'F'. In other words, 'Phylosan' or 'Phyllosan'...I suspect the latter.

Hi QuizmasterG,
You're correct with the latter one.
