RE: clear poison dug today help! - 5/2/2004 4:30:18 AM    Guest swampy Welcome to Antique-Bottles.Net !! If you can please put up a picture of your find it makes identification much easier - see Help - Using the Forum ---> Uploading a Picture. The only clue I can find is here where this bottle is described as "....Rd. No. 590540 is embossed on the rear, near the base...". Where in the UK are you digging?

RE: clear poison dug today help! - 5/3/2004 1:28:31 AM    Guest I don't think there are any UK poison bottle books but I may be wrong. Perhaps you should set about writing one What are your best finds in Northants? (in reply to swampy)   Post #: 4

Poison 590540 - 5/11/2004 2:37:22 PM    Max   Posts: 25 Joined: 10/7/2003 From: UK Status: offline I can't say I've seen the clear one but I'd be interested to know what is on the back apart from the number. I've got a blue 6 OZ example. The front has the same embossing as in the other pictures: POISONOUS NOT TO BE TAKEN The back has: RD No 590540 AND, what looks like a sun in a square border with a large letter "i" in the middle. The other bottles that come up with a search of Google don't seem to mention this, and it isn't in the pictures. Has anyone any info on this additional logo? I guess it is some sort of trade mark. Is it mentioned in Kuhn? Some of the examples are labelled as Kuhn KR18. Thanks, Max Attachment (1) (in reply to swampy) Post #: 6
