I haven't dug any bitters lately, just a broken Mishler's Herb Bitters . That sucked, but I have been getting a few cures, which I also like. ~Jim _____________________________ Preserving our buried history, one pit at a time. http://www.freewebs.com/lewistownbottles/index.htm (in reply to zanes_antiques) Post #: 42

Here is one of my favorites. I love the bottles with the Indians on them. I do not know if this bottle is any count or not, I have never found it in a book, and it is the only bottle I have ever had from Lima, Ohio that I can remember. If I ever get my tumbler set up, this will be one of the bottles that will be cleaned up. Attachment (1) < Message edited by L C -- 6/12/2007 1:47:14 AM > (in reply to zanes_antiques) Post #: 43
