J.F Churchills

[mikepietrello]

Hi guys,
Sorry if it seems like i'm shelling you but i promise I am only asking about the bottles I can't get any info on.
This one is embossed "Dr. J.F. Churchhills Specific Remedy For Consumption" on the front, it's not a strong embossment though. On one side it says "J.W. Winchester New York" on the other it says "Hypophosphites Of Lime and Soda"
Any Ideas?
Thanks,
Mike

That medicine was made over a fairly long period. The earliest ( iron pontil marked) versions are pretty rare. How tall is it?

Thanks Gunther,
It's 7.5" bottom seems smooth

That's the smaller more common size but it looks pretty early, possibly hinge mold bottom with applied lip?

I don't see a seem going around the bottom of the lip so I think you were right on it being of the common type,
Mike
