Burrington's Vegetable Croup Syrup Providence, RI
A rare pontiled RI medicine. I only know of two other pontiled RI cylinders of this style.

Dr. Flint's Quaker Bitters Providence, RI
My third and nicest Flints. This is the uncommon large size. It also has sunken panels which the smaller ones don't have

New England Bottling Co. Westerly, RI
A nice local seltzer bottle. It might be unused, since the etching is unusually bold.

Rumford Chemical Works, large size. Won for the minimum bid of .99 on ebay []

Brownie Club Beverages Providence, RI
A less common RI ACL. Sadly has a large chunk out of the base

John F. Oates Apothecary Providence, RI
A neat pictorial apothecary bottle. I can't say I see many medicines with a bunch of oats embossed on them.

Dr. M.W. Thewlis Wakefield, RI
An uncommon local! The best part about this bottle is that it was free

Calder's Dentine
You might have heard of or seen these before. This is an older version with horizontal embossing. Maybe 1870s?

Wow! Like that Croup Syrup! Your #2 pic really captures it. Rumford's are just Kool! Whoever did the lip on that Calder bottle must have been the same guy that did the lip on my Tarrants.

Whoever did the lip on the Oates did many of mine.. []
Seriously, very nice gets and great pics!!

Nice, all my life I wanted a Turlington pontil. I think I have to change that to a Burrington pontil now.

Man, that Burrgintons bottle is damned nice, love the crudeness to it.
