Watt Brothers Pharmacy Collection

The Watts-Val, John Jr., Dave, and Bob- were a well-known family of druggists in Springfield, Illinois during the latter half of the twentieth century. Each a pharmacist in his own right, they owned and operated several pharmacies throughout Springfield. Each pharmacy was operated independently, although the brothers advertised collectively.

The collection contains items related to the Watt Brothers Pharmacy such as photos, newspaper clippings, a formula book and labels.
