Finally something embossed for all of ya. My uncle dug this up many years ago back when he worked in construction. 3 1/2 in. tall, 1 1/2 in. wide, BIM, says: "Oscar Rydstrom Pharmacist Buffalo, NY " Made buy Whitehall Tatnum. Any guess on age?

Hello Diggerboy. This is the oldest and nicest bottle I have seen you post on here so far. I would guess it dates to the late 1880s or early 1890s. I really like how it has the embossed picture of a mortar and pestle. Thanks for showing us and I would like to say that I am proud of you being an official digger now and not just a surface picker. That’s how I stared out too, just picking up bottles on the top that no one else wanted.

Thank you very very much bottleman. I do have other nice bottles, I just don't need help with identfying them!! It's the unembossed ones that usually stump me.
