Lambert Pharmacal Company - Listerine - 6/16/2008 8:42:00 AM    rlchapel   Posts: 3 Joined: 6/16/2008 Status: offline I found a Lambert Pharmacal Company "Listerine" bottle in a deserted World War II German P.O.W. camp in Ontario, Canada.  The bottle is clear glass and has a black plastic screw-on cap with the letters "L P Co" on the top of the cap.  On the front of the bottle it says: "Listerine" and "Lambert Pharmacal Company (Canada) Limited". What would be the approximate age of this and value? Attachment (1) Post #: 1

Amusing how we cared about the Nazis bad breath. More than they deserved if you ask me. _____________________________ Umm yeah. (in reply to rlchapel) Post #: 5

This bottle with the LPCO logo on the cap, may be one with a bakeite cap.  I forget what the test is to determine if its bakeite.  But it is a better find with the cap.  I think that they are far to common to be of any real value. _____________________________ Buster Bottle Bug Bit with no cure in sight.

It has a distinct odor. _____________________________ (in reply to logueb) Post #: 7
