Shirey and Brown


Company Names, addresses, dates:
   Arnica Cream Company Inc., Roanoke VA

Notes:
Shirey & Brown had a pharmacy in Buena Vista Virginia - see this link .
Buena Vista is about 20 miles from Roanoke. I couldn't find any information indicating that Shirey & Brown had any drugstore in Roanoke, nor evidence that they were affiliated with the Arnica Cream Company. The Arnica Cream Company of Roanoke was incorporated in 1919 with Charles D. Fox as the president, Philip Glore as secretary, and F.M. Mahood as treasurer1.
