Frank E. Morgan & Sons of Philadelphia produced a variety of medicinal preparations during the late 19th and early 20th centuries, including Citrate of Magnesia and “Headache Cologne.” Their cobalt blue bottles, often embossed with a circular company logo, are emblematic of American pharmaceutical branding. The vibrant blue glass served both as UV protection and an indicator of medicinal quality. Collectors favor these for their bold embossing and link to early pharmaceutical craftsmanship in Pennsylvania—a key center of U.S. medical glass production.
