A piece of brown paper, which has many creases. The edges of the paper re not even. The front black calligraphy writing is a Chinese medicine prescription for unknown illness. According to local herbalist, Mr. Choy, this prescription had to be written by a very experienced Chinese doctor. The ingredients showed that this prescription was for someone who had a very serious illness, like cancer, but Mr. Choy cannot tell which illness this prescription for. The back of the paper has three pencil written words"Wing Wo Ching," which seems like a name. See the catalogue sheet for the information about the ingredients.
