The monogram is for the Opthalmic Remedy Company, and the product was Cherry-Laurel Lotion. The company was based in Reading, Pa. I have one with the full label, but it is very faded and would not photograph well. The lettering is in red ink. Hope this helps.

Wow, very little wear for a bottle that old. Sorry just noticed the size. I should rephrase it to: "a lot of detail on a bottle that size"
This bottle looks like a colbalt blue minerial water bottle by masonic eye logo.The lip is a tapered liup for the cork.NICE BOTTLE INDEED! K6TIM

That's a beauty, and not something one would likely find in my part of the country. I just want to add that, for once, when a new posting includes the words "...seams stop well short of top lip..." it was a refreshingly accurate statement. Welcome to the site!
I've edited my comment to add the following: I've never purchased a bottle in my life (more than fifty years after beginning to collect), but I find that a particularly interest specimen. Please let me know if you decide to sell.
Do you know if, when and where it might have been recovered by a bottle digger?
