Boyle & McClinn Philada

Found this old bottle snorkeling many years ago. It's brown and a little pitted from rolling around on a sand bank. I'm guessing it's a whishey bottle from the late 19th Century and probably from Philadelphia. Anyone from the Philly area heard of that company?

Re: Boyle & McClinn Philada

My guess is the host site went down for a while killing the link temporarily. I found a post there saying they were upgrading over the weekend. Anyway thanks Jeff. You are from PA...ever heard of that company?
