Cool bottles. The Llewellyn Pharmacy started life as Hubbell’s Pharmacy in 1857 at 1410 Chestnut Street. When Hubbell retired, the business was taken over by Dr McKelvey and then by William H. Llewellyn (both former clerks in the business). Llewellyn renamed the business accordingly but It didn’t move to 1518 Chestnut Street (as per your bottle) until 1911, at which time it was owned by Llewellyn’s former clerk, HC Swartly.
 

Some more bottles found at the City of Chester dump. All the bottles are from around 1910 to 1920 time. Tournaues Bouquet Kitchen, Hinds Honey & Almond Cream, Hires household extract and Davis OK Baking Powder.

Nice looking glass
Never seen a Davis Baking Powder bottle before.
Lots of Davis painkiller medicines though.
 

Some milk bottles from Chester Pa. George W. West & H. A. Miller. Cannot find no information on these bottles.

Cool bottles! I really like the Hind’s Honey and Almond Cream. Finding a small broom seltzer bottle is what led me to Treasurenet.
