Oldtimer, I am always surprised, and happy, to get pharmacy bottles when I dig for bottles.
I take them all if they are in good condition. I can live with a lip chip here and there, but it amazes me how many come out of the ground in good condition.
The larger towns had more pharmacists, so it is a challenge to see how many different variations you can get.

Woody,

That Arlon Adams from Pittsfield is a VERY rare bottle (in my experience). The Foster from Concord and the labeled Pharacie Francaise are also very hard to find. You have some nice NH pharmacy bottles! I was born in Loudon, NH but moved to northern NH to early in my life to do any digging in that area. Let me know when you decide to let some of those go.

Thanks, Brandon, and a belated welcome to the forum.
Some of the best bottles I dug where up on Loudon Ridge on Lower ridge road in Loudon, NH. Including my Farley's ink.
I've got more out in the shed, so when spring comes and the weather is better I'll dig some more out for you all.

Here is the one I have to find for Dean, only in amber.
He is the one who collects colored drug store bottles from state capitals.
This one is small. About 3" tall.

Did you do most of your digging in NH?
Did you did back when you lived in MA?
