Ever seen this bottle?

It's in this book I don't have:

The Bottle Book: A Comprehensive Guide to Historic, Embossed Medicine Bottles
by Richard E. Fike

It's called:

CERTAIN/CURE/PERMANENT/BREWERS/LUNG/RESTORER

What is it worth?

I have the book, but need a maker to look it up and site says Forbidden.

Thanks mine is a yellow amber. It has a golden look to it. A guy told me one recently sold on Ebay that was chipped and cracked for 90 bucks..mine is at the worst near mint. Unfortunately, the link the guy provided was broke and when I do a search of closed items on Ebay I get zippo.
