Bottle, Medicine: A glass medicine bottle from the Owl Drug Company, ca. 1900-30. Made of thick clear glass, featuring an owl standing on top of a mortar and pestle, with the company name's initials on the front and the company name on the upper back. There are no other identifying features and no indication of contents remaining in the bottle. Found in between two floor joists on the second story of the Workman House (presumed to have been placed there during the occupancy of the Temple family in the early 1920s--the family patronized the Owl Drug store in Alhambra.) In good condition with some scratches and small dark-colored matter adhered to the inside of the bottle. See description.
