H.H.H. Liniment, Help Matt!

The man that sent me the pictures and information says that he knows of only 2 of the 9 1/2 inch bottles. When they first came out they were $2 a bottle and he believes they probably did not sell well and were discontinued rather quickly in that size.

The Francis & Eldridge bottle is interesting. I wonder if its embossed. They were selling it in 1871 so its pretty early.
It seems like DDT's formula must have been in the public domain and people used it as they desired?
Nice photos.

The very first HHH bottles made were circa 1869-early 1870's , have drippy applied-tops, are the larger 9" size, and have medicine missspelled "Medecine" . These are very rare.
