Antique English Glass Druggist & Chemist & Quack Medicine Bottles

These are the Antique English bottles that were used by the Chemists, Druggists, and those Quack Medicines that were marketed in Great Britain in the Victorian Era and Edwardian Era. A few may be from the beginning of the King George V period (early 1910's). These bottles were of the embossed blown in mold type that had applied and/or tooled tops. For the most part these were the cork top types.

Collect these antique bottles, it is a nice item from the past. Some other people buy them because the bottle has the same last name as they have.

Note: the white spots on the bottle in the pictures are just the reflections of the light.
