Texas Druggist Bottle List

TexasDruggistBottles

Texas Drug Store Bottles

Apple-Touch-IconAThis list is a ‘work in progress’. Basic information and pictures will be added as information is gathered and checked. The basic need for this list was inspired by a shorter, written list provided by long-time Texas bottle collector Doyle Bailey. I am hoping some of the Texas collectors will help me on this project. The Houston Bottle Show is also coming up on 17 August 2013 where maybe I can talk a little more intelligently about Texas bottles.
