Letterhead of the Dr M L Holbrook's Hygienic Hotel and Turkish Bath Institute at 13 & 15 Laight Street, Manhattan, New York.
The bath was originally opened in 1865 by the Drs Miller, Wood & Co. It was the first in Manhattan, following the success of Dr Charles Shepard's Turkish baths in Brooklyn, which opened a couple of years earlier. The latter were the first Victorian Turkish baths in the USA.
