Brown's Celebrated Indian Bitters - 1/16/2010 11:29:47 AM    Ohio Rob Posts: 213 Joined: 11/15/2009 From: Massillon, O Status: offline Does anyone know the value of  a honey amber repro of the Brown's Celebrated Indian figural bitters?  It has Jamestown Virginia embossed on the bottom.  I believe it was made in 1957.  Any ideas on a value and how many were reproduced? _____________________________ 35 years digging in Ohio.

I have added the link below if you want to take a look at it . Not sure if it is the same bottle you have or not . http://cgi.ebay.com/browns-bitters-celebrarted-bottle-applied-top_W0QQitemZ120511148481QQcmdZViewItemQQptZLH_DefaultDomain_0?hash=item1c0f0631c1 < Message edited by L C -- 1/16/2010 11:46:53 AM > (in reply to Ohio Rob) Post #: 2

According to the seller , someone contacted him and told him it was made in Europe , and that there was four different colors of them made . Then again I do not know if it is the same as yours or not . Gives a small bit of info on them anyway . http://cgi.ebay.com/Vintage-Indian-Woman-Shaped-Herb-Browns-Bitters-Bottle_W0QQitemZ360219921877QQcmdZViewItemQQptZLH_DefaultDomain_0?hash=item53dec7cdd5 < Message edited by L C -- 1/16/2010 11:56:16 AM > (in reply to L C) Post #: 3

RE: Brown's Celebrated Indian Bitters - 5/30/2010 4:33:08 PM    Ohio Rob Posts: 213 Joined: 11/15/2009 From: Massillon, O Status: offline Thanks for the info.  The link had some pretty good information on the reproductions.  They discussed a Jamestown repro with "Celebated" misspelled.  Mine is spelled correctly.  I have been trying to find out how many of the 1957 repro's were made - no luck.  I will probably be selling mine in the near future but researching is fun.  Thanks again. _____________________________ 35 years digging in Ohio.
