What a Find ! 

Stillman & Breen  /

 Memphis, Tenn

 Short Barrel .

 

In the Memphis directory from 1870 and 1871 I found J.D. Stillman Physician & Author , natural Medication by Blood Restoratives. Business - 203 Main St. bds Overton Hotel , Residence-104 5th St. The 1860-1865 Directories are gone which would collaborate the age of this bottle. Also the owner found a site on the net that had some cancelled checks and letterheads of Stillman & Breen from 1861 - 1862.  Watch for more information surfacing on this fantastic bottle !
