This is an amber 2.3" machine-made bottle with a label from 1962 (left and
right side views shown). The label says: label: REG NO 6298 / BOSTON DRUG CO SOUTH BOSTON, VA. / ... 7-17-62 embossed on the base: T.C.W.CO. / 52 / U.S.A. |
Boston Drug Co.
Company Names, addresses, dates:
Boston Drug Co., South Boston VA (ca.1955 - ca.1979) 1,2
Notes:
The earliest reference I could find to this drug store was a 1955 newspaper
ad, where it was one of 5 drug stores listed in South Boston1.
There was a newspaper mention in 1979 offering drug store fixtures for sale
from the "Boston Drug Co Inc" at "526 Wilborn Street". So the store
seems to have closed at or before that time.
