They are very common  here in Australia and have never seen any of these unembossed bottles with labels for poison but have seen many with labels for Vanilla Essences and other flavourings for baking uses.These date from around 1890 with hand applied tops to the hand finished versions up to around 1920 David < Message edited by TROG -- 6/26/2008 8:05:12 AM > _____________________________ AMERICAN POT LIDS WANTED (in reply to lobeycat) Post #: 10

They aren't common, and they have a great deep color too. Or should I say "colour" _____________________________ Bram Get busy diggin, or get busy dyin' http://www.GreatBayCatering.com cool YouTube song http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vd34vJohGXc (in reply to TROG) Post #: 11
