RE: Group Shot - 10/18/2009 2:31:18 PM    FloridaRecycled   Posts: 382 Joined: 7/9/2008 From: Orlando Status: offline Fantastic bottles!  Love the colors of course - and the lips on them!  That balm bottle in the first pic - the lip almost looks squared off in the pic - it's not is it?  ...and the blue candle company bottle - what would they have sold in that? Thanks so much for sharing the pics!  What a great view you have! _____________________________ Tinna ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Nanna to 3 b-e-a-U-tiful boys!! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ (in reply to ancientdigger69) Post #: 10

Great photos of a great group of early bottles. Very inspiring. Makes me want to get out of the 1890s dump I am in and start digging up some of the earlier privies in my area. Thanks for the post. _____________________________ Just when you think that you have life figured out, someone changes the rules. (in reply to Road Dog) Post #: 12

RE: Group Shot - 10/18/2009 8:03:20 PM    GuntherHess Posts: 11470 Joined: 12/13/2004 From: Frederick Maryland Status: offline The labeled Price's is embossed. I would say the vast majority of 19th century medicines were labeled. The label was what the customer was supposed to see. The embossing was intended more to prevent the reuse of the bottle by others. Paper labels were often added over top of embossing. Bottles were often boxed or wrapped on the shelves so in that case the box/wrapper was the selling point. _____________________________ FREE Online Medicine Guide - http://www.antiquemedicines.com/MedicineNexus/Nexus.htm Web Site - http://antiquemedicines.com Email : mknapp@antiquemedicines.com (in reply to FloridaRecycled) Post #: 17

RE: Group Shot - 10/18/2009 9:32:26 PM    FloridaRecycled   Posts: 382 Joined: 7/9/2008 From: Orlando Status: offline Thanks Matt - I would have never thought they put the labels "over" the embossing...the ones embossed on the side I figured a label would be put on the front...but not over the embossing...as much as I think I know (I don't)...there are so many interesting things to learn!  Thanks for sharing that...I'm trying not to "not" ask when I have a question - because I do believe that no question is silly - there is always someone that can help by sharing what they know and someone that will learn from it!
