Druggist with a story

[fer_de_lance]

Hello All, Upon researching this W L Johnston,Druggist,Evansville,IND I discovered W L was William Levi Johnston who was the husband of Annie Fellows Johnston who authored a number of popular books in the 1800's, in particular the Little Colonel series. Here are some related links. The bottle was difficult to photograph due to etching and frosting from burial. The fancy monogram is hard to see.
