The double ended baby bottle was invented in 1894 by a pharaceutical company called Allen & Hanburys. This glass feeding bottle has 2 ends: one was for the nipple and the other was for adding the food. The second hole was larger thus allowed the bottle to be cleaned properly. It is likely that the development of this double ended nursing bottle help prevent many babies from dying of infection due to contaminated food. Read more about the history of baby bottles here.
