Found this bottle and have found some history on it, however can’t find anything comparable to see its value. I’m interested in selling some of my finds, so I’m hoping you experts might be able to help me?

The embossing says

Hi Megan,
I am having trouble reading the embossed lettering on the bottle in your photos, but it looks like its from Long Island City, New York?
Could you please type out all the wording you can see on the bottle and include in your posts? If you include the embossing on the bottle in your posts on this site, since these posts about antique bottles are soon archived into the google database, sooner or later other web searchers (collectors or anyone) may do word searches and find this discussion thread.
It might help you get more feedback in the future! Just an idea. Also the bottle looks 1870s or 1880s?

Thank you! I have updated it! And yes, so far from what I’ve found it could be 1875-1893. It also seems like there were other bottles made around that time with the address as 23 instead of 53.
