nthony must have had a couple of 4-leaf clovers in his life because, at that time, he put the formulations (there were many, but that also is a future story) along with original labels, pictures of his father's presentations, newspaper ads, publicity items, and so on, away, saying to his dad, "One day."
As we now know, that Irish luck allowed that magnificent Whole Body Tonic to be introduced to America in 1999 - it very well may have never happened.

You see, in 1960, Anthony continued to make small batches of Matonol for family and friends; first at home and later in his own laboratory. He started a laboratory in 1965 thinking he would follow in his father's footsteps and remarket all of his dad's formulations. But Anthony faced the same difficulties as his father in having people believe that these formulations could bring about better health and could, more importantly, prevent poor health. In those days, the new medical discoveries that had begun during World War II, were now the only thing that medical people in North America were looking towards as a cure for diseases that had become more and more prevalent. No one much was talking about prevention. Anthony still continued making that formulation using whatever ingredients, packaging, labels, and so on, left over from his father's company. As various item were used up, he did not bother to reorder, after all, he was only making this for himself, his family, and a few friends. When there were no more labels, he just did not put on a label. When there were no more bottles, then he used any bottle he had, even sometimes making it in gallon jugs. When he was out of an ingredient, he either replaced it with something else that he had on the shelf or did not put it in at all because it did not matter. He, his family, and most of his friends drinking it were in pretty good shape. They were all using it as a preventative; even with some missing ingredients, it still worked pretty darn well.

But all of that only started to happen in the 1970's because there was plenty of everything left to continue making those small batches of the original formula during the 1960's. As a matter of fact, in 1970, he had the opportunity to have a friend of his, who owned an important drugstore in Montreal, try the Whole Body Tonic; the Matonol, and that friend of his exclaimed how unbelievable he felt after drinking it for only a few days and suggested to Anthony that if he had some on the shelves of his drugstore, he could do a booming business.
Anthony was indeed excited because he felt strongly that what he told his father about 10 years earlier, "One day," had come true. He always felt that one day this tonic would be recognized for what it is - a really, really, miraculous Whole Body Tonic.
Anthony prepared a couple dozen bottles of the Matonol and brought it to the drugstore and two weeks later called his friend, the pharmacist, to ask him how sales were going. "Well, Anthony," he said, "it sells when I tell people the significance of this Whole Body Tonic; but if I do not tell them, they do not know, and they will not pick it off the shelf. I do not have enough time to talk to every person that comes into the drugstore." So, as Anthony had learned over the previous 10 years, this indeed was a difficult concept to sell and reluctantly he removed the rest of the bottles from the shelf of his friend's drugstore.
Here is a picture of an actual bottle that was on the shelf and it still has the price tag that the drugstore had glued on it. (Look at this, folks. $15.00 for a 16 oz bottle in 1970 --- more expensive then, than today!). As a matter of fact, recently (in the year 2003) Anthony and his brother Norman tasted this now 33-year-old Whole Body Tonic and they both exclaimed that it tasted pretty good.
That really seemed to have been the end of Anthony's idea that "One day…" He continued producing those home batches, but now doing it from his laboratory and as the ingredients, labels, and bottles ran out, the formulation became something other than the original formulation. Still pretty good - but not the real thing.
