  Possible Sample or Trials - Need More Information

I've never seen a sample Minards bottle but I had a box for one marked sample. I have never seen a bottle small enough to fit in it even if was not embossed sample or a lable only

Nice bottle. Sample bottles with labels are always a good find. Good friend you have there. I guess good friends just like labeled samples are also  good finds.

Is this considered a sample, or does it have to say "sample". I hadn't seen this small size on this bottle before

Nope, the word "sample" or "trial" does not have to be embossed on the bottle.  Sometimes the label will have it printed on it.  I don't think yours is the sample size though, here is a picture of a sample Peptenzyme:

Birds lung cure is out of Norwich CT, very rare bottles, never seen the sample size, I have two variants, both 5 1/2 inches tall, and I have seen a larger one that does say Norwich CT on it also.  These are two of my favorite cures...

Here is the newest bottle in my collection and I get to add it to my sample category:  It's an amber, sample sized, embossed on one side, "Wildroot Company Inc" and on the other, "Buffalo, N.Y."  It is only 3 3/8" tall.

Is there a price guide available for "sample" bottles?  I'm trying to find the value of my sample wildroot but can't find anything on the internet or any any of my price guides, and I have a bunch of price guides.

Yes, that's a really nice one, Paul. You sure can't dig them like that. Great post.
