I know these are about the most common Bitters in the world in amber but this one is Yellow. It came out from under a old house last week. It is a early ABM one (teens by what was with it) I cleaned it up tonight and compared it to the others I have and it is really Yellow when compared to amber. I have one that is amber with olive but not Yellow like this one. When you hold it to the light the base by looking throught he bottle is red not amber. Strange colors are these worth much more than a reg one? Are yellow ones more common in ABM than the older ones. I would think by ABM era the colors were much more uniform? Any ideas help? thanks

That is one beauty! I like Hostetter's bottles. They are a dime a dozen. Here is a variant of that bottle.
