Status: offline I like any small colored bottle, inks / smelling salts / poison / medicine, preferably embossed and or labeled, and with the stopper if it had one new. I like them small because you can fit 3x more of them on a window sill...lol... I collect 1/2 pint whiskeys. I collect any bottle that's pre-1900 and embossed with NH or any NH town. I collect pharmacist/druggists. I collect any pre-1900 bottle with a full and intact label. Holy grail of bottles for me would be colored (Cobalt or emerald green if ya really wanna know specific!), pontiled, embossed with a local NH doctor's name and town, with an intact and legible label. It would mean more to me than about any other bottle I can think of. _____________________________ STOP THE CAR !! I think I see a cellarhole !!! (in reply to bigghouse) Post #: 33
