RE: Blue Sharp & Dome. - 3/25/2005 8:41:37 PM    diginit   Posts: 662 Joined: 4/7/2004 From: California Status: offline I like that one. All the antrol bottles I've seen so far are green. That means that there are probably other colors also. It May be just to keep the cork wet. Hopefully, someone out there can give us some answers. _____________________________ Life is a Ditch.

RE: Blue Sharp & Dome. - 6/16/2005 12:29:31 AM    diginit   Posts: 662 Joined: 4/7/2004 From: California Status: offline Hi there, I like that little blue S&D, Madman. Definately a keeper. abm,post 1910. So what,It's cobalt. Mine has got a very clean tooled lip so I'm guessing 1900. I don't think I want to sell this one yet, But if I do I'll let you know. This is one I just had to have. Got it for $17.oo. I'll keep my eyes open for another for ya. Do you really think this is rare? One more thing for White Lightining and Toxic waste. Where's the pictures? _____________________________ Life is a Ditch. (in reply to diginit) Post #: 9

RE: Blue Sharp & Dome. - 6/18/2005 12:57:20 AM    whiskeyman Posts: 2015 Joined: 4/17/2005 From: NE TENN-SW VA Status: offline Supposedly poisons were made in "odd " shapes so one could easily tell in dim light or in the dark that they had just taken a poison bottle from the medicine chest... The Antrol is evidently made to lie flat & entice/trap ants. I just dug 2 different Antrol clear small jars this week...one still had the tin screw-on lid...will take pics and post here later...(gotta clean them)...Jar is made very weirdly...I thought it had big chips in the mouth when I dug it up...but they're not chips. You'll see.... _____________________________ * Member: Bristol Historical Assoc...and, Friends of Steeles Creek Nature Center & Park President: Bristol Tenn-Va Bottle Club Author of: Spirits & Medicinal Bottles of Bristol,TN-VA.
