three pharmacal glass bottles

Three pharmacal glass bottles that were found in the Tenquille Cabin area by Stew McNolty. a) is a medium Listerine clear glass bottle with a cork screwed on top (as well as a metal ring split on one side on top of the cork) and also has the names inscribed with “Lambert Pharmacal Company” below the other inscription of “Listerine”. The company, Lambert Pharmacal, was found in 1885 by Jordan W. Lambert in St. Louis, Missouri. Their products mainly consisted of pharmaceuticals and the company still remained in the same area. In 1926, it was set up as a holding company until in 1955 when it merged with another company of Warner-Hudnut Inc. It then dissolved in the year of 2000 when Pfizer Inc. took over Warner’s position. Stew says that when Pioneers worked in the mines the air was so dry in the high alpine that they often took listerine with them to soothe their sore throats. b) is the second clear glass bottle that is smaller and wider in size with a rusted metal lid and has the inscriptions of “Trade Mark- Vaseline”on the top and “Chesebrough – New-York” below. The company Chesebrough was found in 1859 by Robert Augustus Chesebrough. He was a chemist who had an interest making oil products for medical needs and thus created the first petroleum jelly by refining rod wax. The company merged with Pond’s Cream in 1955 and along with in 1987 Chesebrough was brought by Unilever (Anglo-Dutch Company). c) is medium sized with a metal cap and the glass is brown in colour. The bottle is unknown of where it came from and what type it is, as there is no inscribed brand name, although by assumption with the other two bottles, it may be related to pharmaceutical products.
