Three Bottles - 2/2/2012 9:53:20 PM    markroutt   Posts: 15 Joined: 2/2/2012 Status: offline Here are three bottles I acquired yesterday but know nothing about since I am new to bottle collecting. If you have any info to share I would love to learn. The bottle on the left has the word "Makamoto" and some asian characters embossed on it and it stands 4 1/2 inches. The middle bottle has has no ID markings and stands 7 3/4 inches with the stopper. It has an unidentified liquid inside but the stopper is stuck and I didn't want to break it by forcing it open. The bottle on the right is 3 1/2 inches tall and has an imprint on the bottom that reads PD&CO .566 Attachment (1) _____________________________ mark routt Post #: 1

You doesn't has to make em so small, when they're so well done. Looks like you were having a pharmaceutical moment when you got these. The Wakamoto is a 20th Century Japanese guy. The large stoppered fellow is a utilitarian chemical, or chemist's cylinder, perhaps shop furniture. The short guy, on the right is probably from our old friends at Parke-Davis.
