I thought it was an unembossed labeled umbrella. It's WAY better than that! I've never seen that one before, and it's not in the reference books. Even cloudy that's got to be a $200 plus bottle. No idea who it is though. With an embossed bottle, it's got to be a manufacturer not just a local pharmacy. Doubtful that most of those would have gone to the expense of having bottles embossed unless they were a big outfit.

I was thinking the same thing, which is why I'm surprised there are no Google hits...

Well I have some info. It is a St. Louis bottle. There was a Guthrie's ink manufacturer in the 1870's, and it pretty rare as well.
It is a nice little ink well. Thanks for the help guys!
