“The Oldest Apothecary in America” (C. O. Bigelow)
Clarence Otis Bigelow took over a pharmacy that had started in 1838, and he operated it for 57 years until his death in 1937. The pharmacy still exists at Sixth Avenue in the West Village, and it's billed as "The Oldest Apothecary in America."
C. O. Bigelow is probably best known today for supplying its named goods to the Bath & Body Works chain.

the oldest apothecary in america.
Limited Brands has expanded it's family of world class brands and is excited to introduce.... C.O. Bigelow, the one-stop-destination for beauty and personal care brands from around the world. The new stores have an overall feel of a traditional apothecary with "clinical laboratory-type elements" that enhances C.O. Bigelow's credibility as a time-tested authority in personal care.
Founded in 1838, C.O. Bigelow is America's oldest apothecary, nestled in the heart of New York's Greenwich Village. Known to customers as a neighborhood hub and "go to" destination for personal care needs, where the proprietor knows its customers, their individual needs and does the research to find all the perfect products to suit the unique tastes and needs of its customers. Famous and historical individuals like Eleanor Roosevelt, Mark Twain and Thomas Edison have all entered the doors of this prominent apothecary store for their personal care needs.
C.O. Bigelow products are available at all Bath & Body Works locations, and the C.O. Bigelow store in Columbus, Ohio. Six new C.O. Bigelow stores are scheduled to open this fall in Boston, Chicago, and Paramus -- stay tuned!

CLARENCE BIGELOW,
LONG A PHARMACIST
Owner of Drug Store 57 Years
Was Treasurer of Columbia
Pharmacy School 40 Years
ALSO PRESIDENT OF BANK
Head of the West Side Savings
Institution Many Years -- Dies
Here at Age of 85
Clarence Otis Bigelow of 133 West Seventy-eighth Street, pharmacist and banker, who was president of the West Side Savings Bank and for fifty-seven years proprietor of the drug store bearing his name at Eighth Street and Sixth Avenue, died yesterday afternoon in St. Luke's Hospital, after a fortnight's illness, at the age of 85.
(...)
A native of Warwick, R. I., a son of William Marlin and Margaret Dye Bigelow, Mr. Bigelow came to New York as a lad of 20 and got a job as a clerk in the drug store of George L. Hooper. Nine years later he became its proprietor. The establishment stood then on its present sire, 414 Sixth Avenue, and had been there since it was started by Dr. Galen Hooper, a Vermonter, in 1838.
The store has, of course, changed greatly in appearance in the ninety-nine years of its history, but in its concessions to modern trends in pharmacies it has continued to make its primary function the dispensing of medicines, the accurate filling of physicians' prescriptions.
