medicine bottles dug out of mill pond - 7/12/2004 7:39:22 PM    BARQS19   Posts: 433 Joined: 6/4/2004 From: Brooklyn, Mississippi Status: offline This is just a few things brought out of the pond. I don't know the first thing about medicine bottles or what ever these things are. If you know or if any are worth anything please let me know. starting on the left is a katz and bestoff pharmacists new orleans. That I do know, It was a K&B drug store bottle. I think Walgreens owns them now. 2nd from left is a Globe medicine co. Spartanburg, SC, 3rd is a "The name St. Joseph's Assures Purity", 4th is a Eagle Extracts Ten Cents bottle, 5th is a White's Cream Vermifuge, 6th is a chattanooga medicine co. Cardui, The Woman's Tonic. 7th is a Dr. Thacher's liver and blood syrup chatanooga, TENN. 8th & 9th are bothe the same but one's smaller than the other. It is a Hick's Capudine for Headaches Colds and Gripp. Three bottles in the back ground are unknown, the two snuff jars are just a few of the 20 or so that we found. The snuff jars are real old, looks handblown. If you know about any of these please let me know. I hope this pic isn't too big, if so I apologize, still trying to find a way to cut them down, putting a white background in the back seems to help.

One thing I don't understand and I may have read it wrong. But why would that Cardui bottle be in with all of this 1900 stuff if it was discontinued in 1882? Robert (in reply to BARQS19) Post #: 7

RE: medicine bottles dug out of mill pond - 7/15/2004 4:59:14 AM    David E Posts: 995 Joined: 5/24/2004 Status: offline Tired eyes, the first mistake is that a ran Indian Woman together. McElree introduced his Cardui in 1879 and sold the product to Chattanooga Medicine Company, Now Chattem Labs discontinued the product around 1982. L.D. Ward purchased trademark in 1984. So the product owned by Chattanooga Medicine Co (Chattem Labs) was in production, 1882 to to 1982. Dave (in reply to BARQS19) Post #: 8
