Two 12" cobalt blue medical bottles embossed Jno Wyeth & Bro., Philada on shoulder. Medium and dark cobalt. John and Frank Wyeth started their business in Philadelphia in 1860. In 1872 an employee invented a compressed pill manufacturing machine which revolutionized the business. A Fire destroyed the Philadelphia location in 1889, thus these bottles are apparently pre-1889.
