Discover a captivating set of four 20th-century Royal Pharmaceutical Society white frosted glass bottles in this exquisite collection.

The provenance of these charming bottles traces back to the family of Peter Green, a devoted pharmacist whose career flourished from the mid to late 20th century. Peter Green managed pharmacies in Yeovil, Somerset, and later Selles Chemist in Filey, North Yorkshire, before venturing into entrepreneurship with his own establishment, Peter Green Pharmacy, nestled in the Market Place, Malton. These bottles graced the shelves of both the Filey and Malton pharmacies as part of the traditional shop fittings and were cherished elements of his personal collection.
