Hello,

What an awesome website.

My most prized bottle is finding one of my hometown. Only 1 known of these with its original label.
Dawson's Drug Store was operated in our town from around 1917 to 1950s.

And did find this Radford's Rapid Relief in my neighbors back yard last summer in a pile of dirt they dug up
to put an addition on there home. I'm temped to start digging in back of my property as my house was built in 1884.
Haha!!

Enjoy
Bert

Welcome to the forum, and nice find! And it's one of those customized labels as well, those don't show up nearly as much as the standard drug store labels do.
As for digging in your back yard, I bet there's a privy or two back there that could hold some nice bottles. If I had a house that old I'm sure I'd try some digging as well if I could figure out where the privies were.
