Wilson's Pulmonary Cherry Balsam Wilson's / Pulmonary / Cherry / Balsam J. W. Brayley / Proprietor (on five consecutive panels) Height: 4-1/2" Shape: 12 Sided Color: Aqua Lip: Square band Base: Flat This was advertised in the 1880's and seems to have been fairly common.

Flaschenjager - Is this bottle in A Bit About Balsams? I think I have posted it before but here it goes. It has a circular embossing with "Pyny Balsam for coughs and colds/Davis and Lawrence Co. Ltd Montreal." I have never been able to find anything on this bottle and any info would be greatly appreciated. Rob Attachment (1) (in reply to NORG) Post #: 5

PYNY BALSAM Pyny Balsam / For Coughs and Colds / Davis and Lawrence Co. Ltd. / The D & L (all on face in a round, embossed seal at shoulder) Height: 4-7/8" Shape: Flat Oval Color: Aqua Lip: Prescription Base: Flat Variant: Same, but clear This was being advertised in the 1880's, but the Davis and Lawrence bottles which use the style, "Lim." or "Ltd." are later than those which use "Co.". The company also put out Allen's Cough Balsam.
