Sun Drug Co. Poison. - 8/21/2005 5:58:30 PM    BottleArchaeologist   Posts: 296 Joined: 6/30/2005 From: San Marcos, Ca Status: offline Was looking through some of my bottles and came across one that has been long forgotten. Embossed "The Sun Drug Co." Also says "Poison" 2 times......once above and once below the Co. name. Seam stops just above where the neck starts. The bottle was made by the Carr-Lowery Glass Co. The makers mark was used from 1889 to 1920. This bottle appears to be an early piece and is obviously before 1900. Any idea as to value? TIA Scott Attachment (1) Post #: 1

A poison would make it even better. An excellent bottle. _____________________________ Looking for Frederick Maryland and Dr Fahrney Bottles 2008 Medicine Bottle Price Guide on CDROM http://www.mattsoldhouse.com/MC/bottles/BottleBook2008.htm email http://www.mattsoldhouse.com/MC/bottles/email.jpg (in reply to BottleArchaeologist) Post #: 4

I have one of these, unfortunately with a big lip chip Irregular hexagons are my favorite. I've only seen a few of the Sun Drug ones. Always a pleasure to see one!
