I picked these from a small shop near the house the other day. Not bad for a couple of bucks. From Left to Right. "Glovers Imperial Mange Medicine"----- The second only says Whittemore Boston, a friend said maybe shoe pollish?---------- Third "W.F. Severa" on one side and "Cedar Rapids Iowa" on the other, i know the company made a pretty nice bitters and other meds but have only seen pics of the bitters, can anyone shed any light on what could have been in it? the seam stops at the shoulder and lots of bubbles--------------- Fourth and final the onlt marking on this one is the word "HOLLAND" about 1cm from the bottom and the seam stops 2mm from the top with some bubbling.

Hi, Steve. The little bottle on the right was for Harlemdruppels, also called Dutch Drops.
We often dig them with "Claess Tilly" & "deKoning Tilly" embossed on them. Try Googling Claess Tilly & you'll get some interesting info.

Thank you Dale, I did find some very interesting information from that. The little one apparantly was from Scranton,PA and that company had some legal issues stemming from the contents of said bottle. Always a deeper story behind these gems, no matter how rare or common the bottle might be.
