I knew it was extremely rare and probably less than 5 known. But didn't know the actual number.
Congrats on owning one of the 3 known examples ! They are a nice looking early Bitters and with only 3 known , nice whittle , and open pontil it makes it a very desirable Bitters even with the repair. Reminds me of a Morning Dew Bitters but with the fancier shoulder treatment.
Nice find !

Thanks Ron, I've seen alot of them but they were later bottles and I never thought about collecting them until recently.

It's your fault you know,showing off all them nice Wolfe's and all. You should be ashamed.
