Thank you   I would have to say my one and only open pontil umbrella ink that I dug here in Biloxi. I do like all the embossed meds also. My favorite med would be a SWAMP CHILL AND FEVER CURE FORT SMITH ARK. My favorite hair (and only one) would be a FEELY and CROCKER SYNDICATE HAIR STORE bottle.  Thanks for the reply,  Marvin

I have about 400 bottles crammed into a built-in china cabinet in my dining room too.  It is not a nice way to display as you can only partially appreciate the ones in the front row and there is no back-light to aid in color appreciation.  I keep telling the wife that I am going to narrow the collection down and add back lights or more shelves.

What all do you have in there?  Pull a few out and show us.

PD

They are mostly meds and inks. But it is a hodge-podge of everything. I agree it is not the best way to display something.  Thanks, Marvin

I think they are also very nice in that antique cabinet and in there they are dust free.Thanks for sharing.
Is it a corner display cabinet? It very unique.... I like that.

Thank you very much Stardust. It is a wall cabinet secured to the wall with two hooks so it will never fall forward. I appreciate the compliments.   Marvin

That's a cool cure, too bad its not the Georgia one, they are a high end bottle.

Anyone see the display shelves in the recent Antique Glass and Bottle Collector mag issue showing Dwight Fryer's poison collection?  30 feet of back lit shelves!!!! Wow!
