Old apothecary bottle.

in Question and Answer
Hey. My dad found this bottle in the woods awhile ago. I finally cleaned it out as best as I could for now. I can't find anything about it or another one like it online. It has Alfred Doerr Apothecary Cincinnati on the front of the bottle. It also has a smooth bottom with a W. T. & Co. The seems come up the side of the bottle and end about and inch from the lip. The bottle also has an iridescent coloring to it. Any advice would be great!imageimageimage

    Hi and welcome to the forum.

    WT stands for Whitall Tatum whose mark is found on many a bottle from the late 19th century. The plant was located in southern New Jersey.

    See their wikipedia page - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Whitall_Tatum_Company

    Pharmacies contracted to obtain bottles for their business for dispensing prescriptions.
