$24.00
Antique embossed pharmacy bottle from Lansing & Sweeney, The Rexall Store, Ballston Spa, New York.
The clear glass bottle measures approximately 7 inches tall and is embossed on the front:
LANSING & SWEENEY
THE REXALL STORE
BALLSTON SPA, N.Y.
Condition:
The bottle has no chips or cracks. The glass has overall fogging/cloudiness from age. A large trapped air bubble and a smaller bubble can be seen in the glass on the back. These are original manufacturing characteristics rather than damage. The mold seam travels up the sides and neck but stops before reaching the top of the bottle.
A historical information card about W. Sawens & Co. will be included with the bottle:
This embossed pharmacy bottle was made for Lansing & Sweeney, a local drugstore in Ballston Spa, New York, identified on the bottle as "The Rexall Store." Rexall stores were independently operated pharmacies that carried the nationally marketed Rexall line of drugstore products.
The mold seam ending below the top, along with the bottle's construction and Rexall identification, is consistent with an early 20th-century date. Trapped air bubbles visible in the glass are original manufacturing characteristics. Today, bottles bearing the names of local druggists provide a surviving record of the pharmacies and businesses that once served their communities.
Estimated Date: Circa 1910s–1920s
Origin: Ballston Spa, New York
Type: Embossed pharmacy / druggist bottle
