Three part mold blown cylinder whiskey bottle. It's a nice amber/olive/yellow color. Manufactured most likely by one of the Stoddard, New Hampshire glasshouses.
The really exciting thing about this bottle is that it seems that Dr. James M. Solomon or his son repurposed this bottle for one of their homemade remedies, medicines, cures, bitters or many other products.
Solomon senior apparently was gathering herbs and roots in the woods on his property and he decided to become a medicine man. He was neither an Indian nor a Doctor though he milked these titles with extreme efficiency in marketing his medicines. Later advertising touted him as “The Great Indian Medicine Doctor” and “The Root and Herb Doctor”.
Solomon junior seems to have actually become a Doctor. He carried the brand further. He even built a sanatorium which was short lived.
I'd love to know what wacky concoction this bottle actually held. It's in great shape. As you can see the label is mostly intact. You can almost read the handwriting. I think the date might be Sept ? 18??. There is what seems to be a small popped bubble in combination with a chip on the bottle edge. See photos for added detail.
I reserched this to the best of my ability but i can't guarantee all of the information. Please buy this for what you know it to be.
