Albert Bull Druggist NY

[xfallwithmexo]

Got this bottle from a collector located in upstate NY who found it in the local dump. It is pre 1900s but I cannot find any information on it. Any insight would be very helpful.
The bottle says:
Albert Bull
Druggist
Middletown NY

The bottom says W ... ? Co.

W T & Co for Whitehall Tatum which is the company that made the bottle, could be a decent bottle to a local collector who needs it and if they weren't in business too long...Jim

It's probably right around 1900 give or take 10 years either way...

Once again thanks for the advice. I own an industrial warehouse in Paterson and I'll let you know if i ever come across anything.

Bull is a fairly common druggist bottle from Middletown N.Y. There is an embossed Mortar & Pestel which is a better variant .

Hey Jordyn,

Did you see this bit?

"IRVING CRAWFORD BULL was born in Middletown, Orange County, N. Y., January 24, 1879. Father's name was Albert Bull and mother's name was Ella B. Crawford. Father was druggist for thirty years..." From.

There's a few more genealogical references to Bull, but the dates are a bit suspect.

There's a mention of old Albert somewhere in this Middletown History. I'm pressed for time, and could not find the reference in n initial partial scan...

Appearantly he wasn't big into advertising but I did find this...

Wow that is some really cool information. Definitely a bottle I am keeping for my collection. Maybe it was in the store during the robbery!
