Hi guys I dug this one today and am wondering if anyone knows anything about it. It is a standard Whiskey size bottle. My pictures look dark and amber but in person it looks like black glass BUT it is a super nice emerald green color like a wellington flask green. Highley whittled bottle. nice bold embossing. If you guys want I will take more pictures in natural lite. Please help. It seems like it is a good one but maybe not! Mike

I have seen a few sell over the years, none lately. They are probably often listed under spirits rather than medicines so off my radar.

yes, english, has the look of late 19th century English spirit bottles.
Was apparently being sold in canada as late as the 1930s.

Told ya it was from the UK for CANADA Mike. I talked to Tim this evening. He said he has dug a few up his way. I think it was Made in the UK but distributed to Canada. We have dug a few good Canadian bottles in there? I wonder if this is the start of a trend in that dump?[8|]
