Looks like an original label (you can buy them on ebay). The bottle looks like one of those decorative bottles you buy at walmart.

That's the problem with the ebay labels, check this Kickapoo-Indian-Sagwa-Cure-All-Early-Bottle-Full-Label_
It's getting worse all the time so Caveat Emptor.

Yeah those are pretty apparent.  They should call these "applied label" bottles :)
Take care, Paul

the worst thing is some newbeew dubee shelled out $9 for this crap. I guess we all did it in our first few days of dicovering this hobby and now hide them in the attic. the seller should be kaned until he looks like a pile of mashed potatoes.

Lobey.
