Your German stoneware flask is a mineralwasserflashe aus keramik used for the treatment of  chancres. It is likely a Pullnauer Bitterwasser. _____________________________ Deep experience is never peaceful and all wisdom springs forth from it. (in reply to deer4x4) Post #: 2

Hope this helps your understanding of how venereal disease was treated before antibiotics.  < Message edited by cordilleran -- 5/20/2008 2:04:13 AM > _____________________________ Deep experience is never peaceful and all wisdom springs forth from it.
