Status: offline 		My 1st attempt to post a picture. I am just looking for some info on the 4 main dark colored bottles ( for now )
I have many bottles to research. I am restraining from digging through and picking out the best. ( not easy )  Age and and possible worth would be appreciated.

From left to right.
10 1/2 " tall no wording. Does have a 4 point star on bottom with a dot in the middle. About 6 1/2 inches up it has a defined line all the way around as if the top and bottom were joined.

11" tall, says One quart on one side and says ( Federal law forbids sale or re-use of this Bottle ) on shoulder. Bottom has D11 56-6 and a small symbol.

10" tall no wording or symbols. has a huge indent on the bottom protruding up into the bottle about 2 inches.

8 1/2 " says OZOMULSION on the side with a crude 1 on bottom.

Status: offline 		Thank you for the input, very helpful. I find myself becoming very absorbed in reading these forums. I love the history behind the bottles. ( more then I ever thought I would before I started doing research on them)

Here are some more bottles that I would like some info on, thank you.

Top left to right.

1 Says on front; Pond's Extract. Bottom says 1846

2 Says on front; Groves Tasteless Chill Tonic prepared by Paris Medicine Co St Loius. Bottom a # 12

3 Says on front; Dr Price's Delicious Flavoring Extracts.

4 Says on front; National Remedy Company New York. On bottom a # 2

5 Says on one side Castoria. On the other side it's had to read, in Cursive. Ana H. Fletchers?

Bottom Left; from these forums I believe it's a baby bottle?
on front
Fluid   Ounce
The     Best
Pat      Sep 1  91
The gotham Co NY

Down the middle it has a scale from 1-7

at bottom it has a small hole


The bottom right I'm pretty sure I know all aout it from my previous bottle, post prohibition, it says same thing just a differant style.

thank you for any help.

Dallas

The fletchers, castoria, Dr Prices and ponds are all what I commonly refer to as "dollar bottles". I never heard of the National Remedy so I can't say.

There is an old baby bottle at the bottom of the picture which should be worth something. Maybe $25-35 bucks, dpeending on what it is and when it was made.

The link on the Pond's bottles was very helpful thank you. It showed me that I could do my own search within this web site lol.

Thr triangle ones are a higher value. Jim or Rick will be along and they will know the value for you on the poisons.

This bottle has the post prohibition writing on it but also has some very nice looking pictures and designs. Has a pic of a guy with a top hat and says Old Mr. Boston across the back side. I think the front side use to have a paper label. Worth much?

Thanks you for all the input

Dallas

The Old Mr Boston
The Old Mr Boston is pretty common in my area, but has some really nice embossing. It is also missing its screw cap. Actually, it had what I call its own shot glass, do not remember if it was metal or plastic, or possibly bakelite off hand. You just screwed it off, popped the cap, and poured yourself a shot !
