I am not a bottle collector, I collect fossils and arrowheads, but I do keep my eyes open for old things. I bought a bottle at an auction last week embossed with "Hiawatha Stomach Bitters". It is amber, square, and around 9.5" tall. According to a website I visited which gave info on dating, it appears to be lat 1800's manufacture. It has a general appearance of many of the bitters bottles that are listed on the internet, but I can't reference the name. I am from southern Missouri, and the bottle was made by the Illinois Glass Company. I can find some reference to other "medicinals" labeled with Hiawatha, made in St. Louis. Can anybody add any further info?
Thanks,
