Notes:
(more information will be added when I get around to researching this pharmacy)

Bottles:

wayland_04 Clear 3.5" machine-made bottle with a label:
label (printed): WAYLAND-GORRELL DRUG CO. / Prescription Druggists / Lexington, Virginia
label (typed): Oil Wintergreen / Take 3 drops in little / water after meals.
wayland_02 Clear 5" machine-made screw-top un-embossed bottle with a 1950 label:
label: WAYLAND'S DRUG STORE / E.L. WAYLAND, Prop. / PRESCRIPTION DRUGGIST / LEXINGTON, VIRGINIA / ... Dr. WHITE ... 1-13-50
embossed on the base: Brockway / 4
wayland_01 Clear 3.5" machine-made screw-top un-embossed bottle with a label:
label: SPIRIT OF CAMPHOR / ... WAYLAND'S DRUG STORE / E.L. WAYLAND, Prop. / PRESCRIPTION DRUGGIST / LEXINGTON, VIRGINIA



Other Items:
wayland_03 This is a 1.8"x1.8" cardboard box with a label from 1922 that says:
label: WAYLAND-GORRELL DRUG CO., Inc. / PRESCRIPTION DRUGGIST / LEXINGTON, VIRGINIA / ... 8-7-22
Since this box is dated 1922, and one of the labels above is dated 1950, I'd guess that the drug store started out as Wayland-Gorrell, and eventually became just Wayland's drug store.
