One I have always wanted. Out of my price range. I'll have to find one at the flea market for $1.00

Would the current bid be a good deal less without the 98% mint label?
It must an attic find, and it's a real beauty.
Soon as I win the lottery these are the types of bottles I'll be bidding on...

The most I ever paid for a bottle was a San Francisco medicine, embossed with mint label and contents.  Have it protected in mylar in an earthquake safe location in a box.
Out here in California we're still waiting for the Hayward fault to crack...

Thats probably in my all time top five fantasy bottles to dig, along with a Farleys Ink,  a Phelps Arcanum, and a Stone's liquid Cathartic.  I dug 3 of those Hartshorns in aqua this summer, was dreamin of an amber one. Maybe this year

I like that one because there are pretty good records indicating it was blown at South Stoddard.

Dont know if I could collect bottles in earth quake land. I might have to collect cast iron toys or something less fragile.

Geez Gunther, you only live once and I think that would look great up there on your shelf.  Could it be a one of with the label and all? Very Very Nice!

The last couple (without labels) I have seen sell have averaged about $1800.
Ya , I could buy it but then i would have a collection with one bottle and what fun is that?  I'm trying to collect better bottles but that's a pretty big step.

I have a friend that said his brother collected really exspensive bottles and his brother had 4. I am with you I got to have more than that! Don't put all your bottles on one very small shelf.
