This bottle was dug in Northern Pa. It has calibrations going up each side, from 1 to 7 on one side, from 20 to 200 on the other. Uncertain what kind of measurement the numbers indicate.
Would like to know the age and value of this unique bottle.

Hello. It’s hard for me to date your bottle without a close up of the seam on the neck but it probably dates from 1890-1910. The lines one the edges were measurement lines for the medicine. I would guess the doctor would tell you how much to drink each time and you would calculate that by looking at the lines. Sorry to say but it has little to know value and you would be luckey to get $1 but if you like it, that’s all that matters.
