Fellow Bottle Collectors,
I recently began collecting Medicine Bottle with interesting embossing. I enjoy doing a little research on each bottle but have come across one that impossible (for me) to locate anything ~ 3 pictures attached.
POOR MAN'S COUGH SYRUP ~ BIM ~ light clear/purple color ~ 5 3/4" tall by 2 1/4 wide.
The base has a raised design, possible an acorn, but cannot be sure
I have found a "Poor Man's Bitters" Bottle and "Anderson's Poor Man Cough", but NOTHING for this bottle. I have checked many on-line sources and checked the "Bottle Book: A Comprehensive Guide to Historic Embossed Medicine Bottles" by Fike, and NOTHING.
Does anyone have any information? I'm not sure if the wording POOR MAN's is the name of a Company or perhaps means something else entirely.
Thank you,
John
