This bottle is shaped like a pitcher, white frosted and has this on the bottom, "Federal Law forbids sale or reuse of this bottle" Anyone have any ideas?

Welcome Kareenia,
The Federal law verbiage signifies that the bottle is a liquor bottle that was made after prohibition. That makes it fairly modern. Most bottles with this on it are neither rare nor valuable. I'm sure there are some exceptions, though. The white frosty stuff is likely mineral deposit which formed on your bottle over the years (while underground or in the water). Best of luck collecting, Bob

Welcome, Karen!

"Federal law forbids bla bla bla says it all.. it was a liquor bottle dating from 1933 to 1964. I would like to see a pic of it. Just so I learned something tonight, you know..

I wasn't racing Chuck. However, I'll take your 13 seconds and raise you one minute and nine seconds.

[image][/imC:\Documents and Settings\Karen Grant\My Documents\My Pictures\2010-08-23\100_0817.JPGage] If I did this right, it is my bottle! Thank you all for your help. I need to know if I can post it on ebay. I have written a book, by the way and I would love anyone's help spreading the word. It is about my six year old son who was abducted, "Stolen Child" This will help people find their children. Please check out my website for more information. http://www.sure-clean-cleaning.com
Go to the top and click on "Stolen Child" tab.

Thanks all

Kareenia ...Welcome to the Forum...
is this what you have?
Even if it's not - yes, you can list your item on Ebay.
