A new sewer line is being dug outside, right through an old landfill. Some interesting bottles are being unearthed, one of which has raised letters which partially says

"...poisonous won't..." and "Dead Stuck for Bugs" followed by "trade (picture of bug with nail through it) mark," followed by "Gottlieb Marshall & Co" "Cassel Germany," Philadelphia, PA.

Can anyone tell me about this company or what the approximate worth of the bottle is?

Thanks so much!

There are a couple differend varieties of that bottle. Yours looks like it may be one of the smaller ones. They typically sell for about $12-18 range, maybe a bit more for an odd version. The embossing on these is often weak, sharp embossing is more desireable.
