Two Mistakes at This 1960s Pharmacy Counter: Answer

This 1960s pharmacy counter shows old bottles, paper prescription envelopes, a hand scale, brown medicine bags, and an old cash register. Two small details do not fit the period.

Two Mistakes at This 1960s Pharmacy Counter: Answer

The Answer

The correct answer is: The modern childproof cap safety ring and the peel-off blister-pack foil tab are the two mistakes..

Here is why

  1. The bottles, scale, paper bags, prescription envelopes, and register all fit the old pharmacy setting.
  2. Look around the old medicine bottles and the paper envelopes instead of only checking the cash register.
  3. The safety ring and blister-pack foil tab are newer packaging details hiding in the normal counter clutter.

Why people miss it

A pharmacy counter is full of tiny labels, caps, paper, and shiny bits, so modern packaging can blend in if you scan too quickly.
