Anotations

Scope note:

Bottles, usually glass or ceramic, designed to hold medicines in an apothecary's establishment, often having matching glass stoppers or cork stoppers. The name of the contents was written on the bottles, on labels or molded into the glass. For vessels used to store medicines by an apothecary, but having wider necks and often made of ceramic, use "drug jars." For smaller bottles used to store smaller household quantities of patent medicine or other medicine, use "medicine bottles."
