Only found a little info on him. Can't pin down when he started, but in 1896 the Ryan Drug Co. merged with the Pioneer Drug Co. With Mr. Ryan as manager. So I would assume your bottle pre-dates 1896. Any embossing on the bottom ?

Yes W T & Co, it has a pontil mark on the bottom. What would a price be for something like this?
