We have all dug our share of Caldwells, Atwoods and Capudines in the large sizes, but the smaller sizes are harder to come by. The Atwoods in the center with the complete paper label is almost never seen and is worth many time over what a regular size bottle would be worth.

ATWOOD'S JAUNDICE BITTERS. The paper label as you point out is spelled JANNAICE BITTERS.

I'm not sure this is an error. It appears in later years that the rights were sold and several people produced this medicine.
This name variation appears on newer screw top versions. Your sample seems to be an older bottle with a newer label. The name may of been changed in response to the F&D Act or for licensing reasons. It seems too many letters are changed in the name to be a simple typo.

Here is a sample Dr Fahrney's Teething syrup for Babes...

I have a small, just shy of three inches, Traymore Drug Shop, Atlantic City. Don't know if it's a sample bottle or not. If you're interested, I can send a pic or two tomorrow.

I have found that size and smaller local medicines from my town and others and don't know if it is a sample bottle or not. My guess would be "not" and may be a small local medicine bottle also. Why not put up a photo of it for everyone to see. Maybe someone else knows more about it.

That green is a killer color. I would think that it should command a nice premium price. Have you ever seen the larger size in that color?
