I was sent here to ask if anyone know anything about this year sale find. Thanks

http://forums.ebay.com/db2/topic/Pottery-Glass-Porcelain/Not-Sure-If/510241748?start=15&#msg523966348

It is frosted not gray, and says before on one side and after on the other.
They are at the link on eBay's forum, I will have to read a little more to see how to post pics on here.

Thanks, there is the same bottle in this forum from a bottle show. The one on here has writing on it, something about Christmas but I can't make out the rest. I need to find out what was in it I think so I can list it. Much less than 200-300. lol From what I have been reading yes you guys are really into the bottles. There are some pretty cool ones out there. I have 2 I dream of Jeannie bottles. I had no idea untill I was looking at them and just searched that because that what they looked like. Then the very next day I found this at a yard sale. Terri

Welcome to the forum, ForeverSearching.... sorry - not sure what was in it. I just thought it was cool and took a picture of it. $145 was the pricetag on the one I took a picture of last year.

http://www.antique-bottles.net/forum/m-270701/mpage-1/key-/tm.htm

I knew I have seen it before as well, but couldn't remember till the bump.  Before and After bottle.

This is a guess, but was probably produced year round, they just made a holiday issue during the season..

It says "Compliments of Van Vleet Mansfield Drug Co. Xmas '02".....

From Digger's website.....

P. P. Van Vleet, president of the Van Vleet-Mansfield Drug Co., Memphis, Tenn.. was born in 1849 at Kalamazoo, Mich., and received his education in the Kalamazoo College. Just after completing his course, he started out for himself, with no particular place north of New Orleans in view, but on reaching Memphis he was quick to see and realize the possibilities of the place and secured a position as prescription clerk with G. W. Jones & Co.. at that time the largest drug house in that town. In 18i9 he purchased a half interest in the business. This interest he sold in 1884 and established the wholesale house of Van Vleet & Co., which business was continued profitably until 1894, when the business of the Mansfield Drug Co. was purchased, thus establishing the Van Vleet-Mansfield Drug Co- Mr. Van Vleet is a man of great executive ability to which there could be no better monument than the largest Southern drug house of which he is the head. He is one of the most public spirited men in Memphis, and, while he does not take an active part in politics, he is always ready to contribute his money and services for the welfare of the city. Mr. Van Vleet is an ardent fisherman and a prominent member of the Tarpon Club at Aransas Pass, Texas, where he goes several times a year in quest of the gamiest of fish. He is also a great traveler and has made several trips to Japan and Europe, and has been round the world once.

You're right! I meant to do that, but got sidetracked with editing pics and such! Glad you did it! So... what kind of alcohol did the drugstore give away for Christmas?

I would think someone made them to be used by companies as gifts with their own message on them or like yours, just plain.....Jim
