Southeastern CT, U.S.A. Also in Adams & York Co,
Here is a F. E. Bailey and Co. Apothecaries Lowell, Mass amber bottle I aquired. The base has the W.T. & Co. mark and the seam stops below the lip. I know there is known clear medicine bottles and cobalt poisons from this company but I have couldn't find an amber bottle online. Does anyone know what it's contents possibly were or if it's hard to find this variation?

Could have been anything that you get at an apothecary. The shape is certainly consistent with pills.

It could have held a number of medications but usually amber bottles were used for light-sensitive compounds. I believe I have seen this bottle in clear and amber, not sure how much harder it is to find the amber one.
