A collection of antique amber apothecary bottles, many of them still wearing their original paper labels and cork stoppers. They appeared to date from the early to mid-1900s, when pharmacists routinely mixed and dispensed medications by hand rather than relying on factory-sealed packaging. The aged labels, amber glass, and timeworn corks gave each bottle its own personality, preserving a small glimpse into the history of medicine and neighborhood drugstores.
