I have 3 interesting American pontil meds (see the photo) available as swaps for British embossed pontils. Preferably medicines, but others always considered.

The US bottles are:

- Dark olive green / black Swaims Panacea. Sand type pontil. VGC (one tiny flea bite to top outside edge of lip)
- Flint glass E. BYAM'S LIQUID OPODELDOC. Solid rod pontil, flared lip. About perfect.
- Flint glass Whitwells Patent Volatile Aromatic and Headache Snuff. Solid pontil, rolled lip. About perfect.

The Whitwells is a Boston, Mass, bottle. E. Byam (Ezekiel Byam) was a prominent businessman in the early to mid 19th century, mostly from the manufacture of matches rather than medicines. There's a lot about him online.

Anyone interested let me know. I can post or email more pictures and more detailed descriptions if requested. Also happy for all 3 of these to go in one deal if it's for a British pontil I really like. Similarly, will top up with $$$ if necessary.

Thanks

God I would love that Swaims.  Alas no Brit pontils here.  Always interested in US bottles if you get any.  Feel free to email.
