Dr. Teague's Medicated Air Inhaler

[Ohio Rob]

I was reading through the "Antique Inhalers" post in the Suggest a Website Category (excellent discussion) and thought I had dug one a few years back. After a little bit of looking I found it. DR. TEAGUE'S / MEDICATED AIR / INHALER The bottle is 8 sided with a tooled top (nice stretch marks in the neck) and a smooth base (4" tall). It is not listed on Matt's website. Any ideas on where it is from? Other info?

Base.

cool one. Richmond Ind. I dont really cover inhalers although they sometimes get mixed in with medicine bottles. The bottles are often the chemicals to put in the inhaler rather than the inhaler its self (like the pillow inhaler bottles)

Teague is an Irish sur name, and in fact probably a relative of mine. My screen name derives from my middle name which is my mothers maiden name, "Tigue", which is a different spelling of it... cool bottle...

Which is where my daughter's middle name "Teagan" derives from, I believe. Awesome name!!

thats funny, I never thought Id ever hear of someone with the same middle name as mine, thats darn close enough to say it counts! Tigue was supposedly an Irish prince in the 1400's with direct lineage to the blood of Brian Boru, who was the only king of Ireland, ever... I wish they'd make a movie about Brian Boru, quite a story there, and mine and most of Ireland's greaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat, great grandfather...

"Teagan" in various spellings has sort of grown in popularity. I love Teague (Tigue) as a name. We only had two names picked out for her, and the other one ended up being her first name. I won the first name vote since I hauled her fetus butt around for nine months, but her name would have either been either been either or, just flip flopped. There are several Swedish variations on the name as well, I believe, and my husband is Norwegian, so it was his go to choice.
