Nah, that bottle ain't quite that old. We had one of the empty bottles from the late 1800s, they were quite a bit thicker, and there was no printing/painting on the bottle, the logo was literally molded into the glass.

The bottle OP posted was well past the cocaine era, but before they abandoned lead in their glass bottles.
