Made By: Universal Medicine Co. / Universal Laboratories, 1857 W. Armitage Avenue, Chicago, IL [Bucktown]
Research is underway on this one and a full write-up will be coming soon.
I recently acquired a bottle of Universal Hoffmans Drops made by Universal Medicine Co. Chicago, IL. The bottle is antique and still has the original label and the glass bottle is complete (without cracks or chips) with original cork. However, the cork is down inside the bottle. I am writing to you because I am wondering if your museum would be interested in buying this antique bottle from me to add to your historic collection? If someone would contact me at the email address attached to this message, I’d be happy to make a good deal. Thank you for your time and consideration.
