Cobalt Warners? - 11/9/2010 11:26:25 AM    markh   Posts: 76 Joined: 8/1/2009 Status: offline Saw this on ebay. Seller says it's a modern cobalt warners. It doesn't look like the typical Frank's knockoff. The pictures are poor quality, but it almost looks like it is backlit with a blue light. Someone's bid $76 so either they didn't read carefully or they like repos. Could it be a rare clear version? Has anyone ever seen one like this? http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=330493782336 Mark Attachment (1) Post #: 1

I've never heard of a cobalt Rochester or any other city. The collar looks like a may be a double collar but yes, the pics are horrible. I know the Franks but I think there were other repros. It would be cool to find a new cobalt variant though. _____________________________ Quando Omni Flunkus Moritati Eric (in reply to markh) Post #: 2

I've heard of green, aqua and clear Warners K&L cures but have never seen one. Here is typical green repo with a blob top. I asked the seller to post better pictures. http://cgi.ebay.com/Cool-Bottle-Antique-Warners-Kidney-Liver-Safe-Cure-/380287368733?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item588ae4be1d Mark Attachment (1) (in reply to cowseatmaize) Post #: 3

Hard to tell with the poor quality of those photos it could be anything. Would you take a chance on a first time seller with crappy photos? I'd rather by a lotto ticket. < Message edited by GuntherHess -- 11/9/2010 9:35:55 PM > _____________________________ FREE Online Medicine Guide - http://www.antiquemedicines.com/MedicineNexus/Nexus.htm Web Site - http://antiquemedicines.com Email : mknapp@antiquemedicines.com (in reply to bottle_head9) Post #: 5
