Janet Traylor’s has a collection of ancient apothecary and medicine bottles.

Janet Traylor’s collection of ancient apothecary and medicine bottles is kept in an old wooden ammunition box under the grand piano in her midtown Phoenix home.

Her collection came to her already completed and filled with memories. It’s a gift from her late father, with whom she collected these blue and green and clear glass containers when she was a child. KJZZ contributor Robrt Pela visited Traylor to learn more.
