Would be a nice go-with

P.S... was that what came in the "Golden Treasure" bottles? I don't think I ever really knew.

I hope you don't mind me showing a few of my goodies? This topic doesn't come up often on here.... Thanks,...Joe

Not at all! I picked up the oil sweet birch from a friend. If I come across another I will let you know.

I think that more or less, it was all the same stuff.

"Dr. Frederick Humphrey, a Methodist minister, and also a Homeopathic physician, proprietor of the Homeopathic Medicine Company, 562 Broadway, New York, claimed that for years he had been Mr. Pond’s family physician, and that Pond had given him the right to manufacture and sell the extract through his ‘Humphrey Homeopathic Medicine Company.’ He did, indeed, commence to manufacture the same, continuing the name, ‘Pond’s Extract.’ His claim was denied by Palmer, who commenced suit and applied for an injunction forbidding Humphrey from either using the name ‘Pond’s Extract,’ or manufacturing the article. A party from Connecticut who had worked for the original firm of Pond and the Indian, also claimed that he had the right to make ‘Golden Treasure,’ but he was unable to establish his claim."
