There are many different styles out there and lots have local druggist names on them form different towns. I have also seen a couple in emerald green! They are worth a few pennies but have never had the chance to dig one.

We dig citrates that have a diamond pattern embossed all the way around with Citrate of magnesia embossed in the center panel, (kind of like the neehi and orange crush bottles) they are a bear to clean..[:'(] If anyone wants let me know and ill save some this summer (really common in this dump) and you can have for ship cost....Of course youll have to clean em yerselves...[;)]

Here’s a pic of my oldest citrate of magnesia bottle. It’s blown in mold and has a real blob top on it, not a fake one like you usually see with the seams running up to the top. I would also like to say that we all started talking about the blue Philips Milk of Magnesia bottle in first picture but now are talking about Citrate of Magnesia. They are two completely different companies although they both made the same product.
