    Genuine Phillips Cobalt Blue Glass Bottle, Milk of Magnesia, Embossed Base, Made in U.S.A., 9 Inch Screw Top

    $24.99

    This is a Genuine Phillips cobalt blue glass Milk of Magnesia bottle from 1957, about 9 inches tall with a threaded screw top neck and GENUINE PHILLIPS' embossed on the base.

    The rim is smooth with no flea bites or cracks, and the cobalt is bright and even, while the inside still carries dark specks and residue, all shown in the photos.

    Phillips' Milk of Magnesia came in cobalt blue bottles for much of the 20th century, and the threaded neck marks it as a later screw cap bottle rather than an early cork top. It glows on a shelf or windowsill where light can pass through it.

    Questions buyers ask

    Every listing spells it out and shows it in photos. Chips, hairlines, crazing, worn plating, old repairs. If I did not mention it, it is not there.

    Yes. Every photo is the actual piece, taken by me. When it sells, it is gone.

    I note maker, mark, era, and measurements when I can confirm them, and say so plainly when I cannot. Unmarked pieces get dated by what the piece itself shows.

    I process your order within 1 business day, wrapped and boxed so it arrives the way it left here. Don't forget, free shipping on orders $35 and up.
