Dr. S.S. Fitch 714 Broadway N.Y.

Do note the monogram bottle being from a later date in the 1800's had now "& Son" on it. I will research more on the good doctor and share it with you here, after I check these archives, first. I had never seen this one before.
Quack or Doctor?

GuntherHess has more on the son "Samuel" at post https://www.antique-bottles.net/forum/m-77956/mpage-1/key-fitch%252Cson/tm.htm#78017
The monogrammed bottle is a living testiment to the later generation's business. Perhaps, GuntherHess can share what he knows about the life and times of Dr. Fitch.

It appears he was a real doctor. This from TomFolio.com which was discussing an authentic antique, signature from the good doctor or should we say dentist.

American physican, founder of a patent medicine company, and author. Dr. Samuel Sheldon Fitch (1801-1876) received his medical degree from Jefferson Medical College of Philadelphia in 1828. The following year, he published his A System. of Dental Surgery wherein he defined himself as a "Surgeon Dentist." Considered the best text on dentistry at that time in America, it preceded the first dental college in the U. S. by eleven years. He later turned his attention to the lungs and authored a treatise titled Six Lectures on the Uses of the Lungs; and Causes, Prevention, and Cure of Pulmonary Consumption, Asthma, and Disease of the Heart; On the Laws of Longevity; and on the Mode of Preserving Male and Female Health to an Hundred Years in 1847. His Guide To Invalids; For Persons Using The Remedies Of Samuel Sheldon Fitch, A.M., M.D., With Remarks On The Cure Of Consumption, Head-Aches, Liver Complaint, Asthma, Dyspepsia, Diarrhea,... was published about 1848, and indicates he had entered the patent medicine business from an office located on lower Broadway in New York. Indeed, he began trading under the name "Dr. S. S. Fitch," and about 1851 he began issuing almanacs, Dr. S.S. Fitch's Almanac and Guide to Invalids, which promoted his patent medicines and medical devices, and prescribes health regimens and cures for consumption, asthma, heart diseases, bronchitis, head-aches, dyspepsia, ague and fever, liver complaint, diarrhoea, baldness and hair loss, and whatever else ailed you. An advertisement in the 1854 Boston Herald annouced that a local doctor was the "Agency for Dr. S.S. Fitch's Celebrated Medicines and Mechanical Remedies for cure of Consumption, Asthma, Female Diseases, etc.". His last book, The Family Physician, was a popular medical treatise published in 1876.

Good research Joel...Interesting info for sure...Also I really like the monogramed example...Never saw that one yet. Here are my two,..I realized they are both the same adddress when I took the pics. The oval is smooth base hingemold, and the squared off one is only about 4 inches op...I dug both of these in separate dumps...my lip is chipped on the flared one.

Some good color there.... Nice...

Joe,

Your 707, oval is hinge molded yet I have that same bottle with an open pontil roughly broken off. That means that bottle style was being used at a certain time during which, the industry standard for bottle production was changing. Maybe, 1870-1880 give or take a decade. Thank you Bill Lindsey, who is my industrial or commercial glass morphology Guru!

Here's a nice one with a crude applied lip....I found this pic surfing through google... Thanks for sharing your info Joel.
