    Newest Feebay Find

    Here is a rare Davis & Miller Druggists Baltimore Bottle. It has a flared Lip and open pontil. This bottle is from when they were at 3 North Howard Street. Davis and Miller were listed as Wholesale Druggists from 1846 to 1890. They were around as early as 1840. This bottle is one of their earlier ones. Bottle is a nice green color. Has a chip on the flared lip though.

    Pretty little (I assume it's little) bottle! It's a wonder that some of these flared lips survived at all.

    Road Dog, excellent pieces. I am a bit surprised the beautiful Rumfords went into the early 1900's, I never knew that.

    Tooled lips were around even in 1915. Took machinemades awhile to take over.
    Here is a Rumford card I posted before. It will go good here.
