Welcome but your right. The picture leaves a lot to be desired. In any case though, a quick google shows that the company succeeded PE Witherspoon & Co.. of Benton Harbor sometime around 1900. That means it could have continued much later but I can't see your bottle or type of manufacture.
If you can tell me more or get a better pic I may be able to say more. Or someone here may know just by looking.
Again, welcome to this forum, Eric

I collect Michigan druggists, Andrew, and I don't have that one.
The value is probably about 30.00, high end.
I can look up info on the druggist, if that is what you want to know.
Where are you from? Did you dig the bottle?
Bill
