Finally got my 2006 Medicine price guide printed.
Its now available on my webpage. I will start shipping orders next week.

http://www.mattsoldhouse.com/MC/bottles/BottleBook2006.htm

This is my first effort on a book like this. Hopefully the critics will be easy on me. It takes a huge amount of time but it is fun and you learn a lot. I'm already planning improvements for the next version.

Hey Matt -

Looks like you've done a great job on putting your price guide together - congrats! I know there is a ton of research and work involved in such a project but it's a lot of fun to see it all come together. I'm sending payment out to you by snailmail for a copy, looking forward to checking it out.

-Sam

Hi Matt,
I wanted the book, was thinking whether I should spend the money, then saw you're giving it to Habitat, & that pushed it over the edge. What a great thing you are doing!

PS: If you could sign it, I'd be tickled!

Thanks for the good review. I hope to hear from people on what they didnt like or what I forgot to put in too. I would like to put some pictures and old ads in but they take up a lot of room and the main purpose is really a price guide. Its amazing, I still constantly see lots of medicines I dont have listed. The number of medicines produced in the 19th century is hard to believe.

Mine came yesterday and I have to say that I'm very impressed with the accuracy of the price estimates, at least of the bottles I'm familiar with. I highly recommend this book to anyone who likes to play around on Ebay, both buyers and sellers would benefit from this information. Nice work Matt!

Thanks,
Hopefully its a little more accurate than some of the popular bottle price guides out there. I wont mention them by name but thier initials are K.O.V.E.L.S.

Hi Matt,

Recieved my copy of your Medicines book today. Much more realistic prices listed than any of the other books that are circulating these days. Certainly a must have for the serious medicine bottle collector. I am sure there a quite a few variants and local medicines around that are not listed, but the pricing on these would be unpredictable because of the very limited numbers produced or available. I consider this book a worthwhile investment. Keep up the good work.

Cliff

Just got mine in the mail--I like the format, and found my Moxie Nerve Food Lowell Mass right away--$18--pretty good for my collection. Thanks for signing it.
