Here are a few from my neighborhood. Hamilton Russell was a pharmacist in the 1880s to about 1898.

Will Buy/Sell/Trade for for Nevada Bottles


When I weeded out my "out of area" bottles a couple years ago on ebay I sold a Dalton, Clifford & Wilson druggist bottle from Reno, Nev.
It went for over $200 which pretty much shocked me.  My other Reno druggist bottle went for like $12.00.

That J.J. Mack Heart Remedy is pretty nice. Mack had the basic square "Wholesale Druggists" bottles, the really nice Indian Sarsaparilla and a bitters as well, if memory serves...

Hi Jason....I would like to have had a shot at that Dalton, Clifford, and Wilson bottle.  They were only in business for ten years and Wilson took over on his own in 1916.  I have a couple of his solo bottles (N.E. Wilson). Keep me in mind if you ever want to weed out your Nevada bottles. I have several SF bottles and I'd trade almost any of them for a Nevada I don't have.  I was in Goldfield last week and talked to a digger who had five Goldfield bottles available ranging $225 to $425. Before I could strike a deal - his wife mentioned she had promised them to someone else several weeks ago. I may still get a shot at them if he doesn't follow through. They are very difficult to find and are on my list....Ron

Pacific Homo Pharmacy, SF

Oh man, that is just too good to be true. I bet that bottle is worth quite a bit of money with the pun and all lol

"I bet that bottle is worth quite a bit of money with the pun and all"

Back some years ago a woman had the good fortune to clean out the basement storage of an older drug store. She was putting up "labeled with contents" bottles of all kinds on ebay which by chance were mostly from large East Coast firms. Then she put up a labeled-with-contents Pacific Homo Pharmacy bottle. Ended up paying $60 for that little sonofagun. That's a record in my book for a 2.5 inch homeo bottle. Turns out I was competing with an Australian homeopathic collector. That was when you could "check out the competition" before ebay hid everyone's Identity and shopping history.

Ron, are you interested in that Reno soda bottle I mentioned before? The silver state with the embossed miner and mule on it? Its a good bottle as crown top soda's go. Somewhere on this site is a picture of it but when I do a search nothing comes up. I'd be happy to trade it for a San Francisco bottle.

This is nice and minty, as they say. Don't see these too often.





Hmmm, check out this vintage business card now up on ebay...so this isn't a druggist bottle after all.
