This is an original 1938 glass medicine bottle for the former Reich's Drug Store at 598 Merchant Street in the borough of Ambridge, PA, complete with an off-white resin lid and a paper label with advertising for the drug store, a date of April 22, 1938 for the prescription, instructions for taking the medicine, and the prescribing doctor or pharmacist (Dr. Berlin). On the bottom of the bottle is the name "Owens," very likely referring to the Owens Bottle Company that was active at the time. This great piece of Ambridge history stands 6 1/4" tall with the lid on and 2 1/2" wide.

Overall, the bottle is in good vintage condition. You'll see in my photos that I did NOT clean the bottle, in order to avoid damage to the label, which has a lot of wear and stains and which has also lost adhesion on its right side (I did not want to use any kind of glue to reattach that end of the label, again to avoid causing damage--you can see my thumb under the label in my final photo). Oddly, fragments of plastic tape occur inside the bottle. There is smudging on the inside and outside of the bottle and dirt & medicine residue on the inside.
