You dont see this bottle too often either on ebay or glass auctions for that matter.I believe this bottle is an early American Copy-cat of the original Britsh Version.Dr. Dyott advertised these in 1810 and the color is right there with other products that were coming out of the Olive and the Gloucester Glass works of which he was the sole agent for each factory.The bottle is light yellw green in color,has a rough pontil mark as shown and a flared but rounded thicker then usual top.It is embossed vertically TRUE CEPHALICK SNUFF/on one half and BY THE KINGS PATENT on the other.My guess on the age would be 1800 to 1815.Mark or Jerry could either of you two guys shed some light on this.Does anyone else here at this forum have one or has information pertaining to the bottle?
Thanks Steve
