Description

A medicine bottle, Bronchi-lyptus for coughs, manufactured by Edward G. Binz, 732 Ceres Ave, Los Angeles, ca. 1910. The small amber colored, glass bottle still contains about an inch of syrup corked inside. It has a label adhered to three sides containing dosage instructions, guarantees, recommendations for prospective users and partial list of ingredients. The label is adhered strongly with a corner lifting on the left side. The cork has been half broken off and seems to be a tight fit. Embossed on the bottom as a relief is Binz's name, on the back side is the product name. There is a stain on the front of the label, but bottle and label are generally in good condition.
