What a great looking antique bottle.  Normally when you see these large wide mouth amber bottles, they are label only, machine made bottles, without any embossing.  It is nice to see this one is base embossed and has the colorful YELLOW and BLACK paper label.  This bottle is NOT
machine made, but an early blown glass example with bubbles in the glass and a hand finished lip.  The size too is fairly big.  And to save the best for last, it was an EIXLIR derived from opium
, a CODEINE SULPHATE compound, as it has printed in large black working on the label,
