hi does anyone have any information on Robert Turlington bottles? They are about 2 in tall and written on one bottle I have it says Robert Turlington for his invented balsam of life, on the other side is written by the king's Royal patent. What I found out is that the medicine bottle originally came from England but after the American Revolution it was still produced in the US using the same name and as such there's several American made counterfeit ones out there.

Is there any value to these? My mother collected 3 different colors of these bottles.

I think this one may be the real thing.
