medicines - 6/23/2010 4:54:20 PM    #1twin   Posts: 748 Joined: 5/25/2006 From: Biloxi Ms Status: offline Here are a couple of my most recent medicine's, dug in Mobile Ala. I researched them and found that the KNOXIT GLOBULES were to treat goneria and the like. But when I researched the W.H. CRAWFORD bottle I found some politician. It reads:  W.H. CRAWFORD CO. SPICES EXTS DRUGS ETC BALTIMORE MD. Any informationas to age, value, etc is appreciated. Thanks for looking,  Marvin Attachment (1) Post #: 1

It has been about a month since I researched them and I am getting CRS these days I'll have to go back and look. As luck would have it, that one is cracked also.

I think that is a common one. I see them fairly often. _____________________________ FREE Online Medicine Guide - http://www.antiquemedicines.com/MedicineNexus/Nexus.htm Web Site - http://antiquemedicines.com Email : mknapp@antiquemedicines.com (in reply to #1twin) Post #: 6

"February 13, 2007 I acquired a full bottle of KNOXIT Globules with the little black globules still inside. I am trying to find out what they were a remedy for. —Allison, Colorado Curator Response: Earlier examples of Knoxit indicate that the product was a remedy for Gonorrhoea and Gleet (urethral discharge). The globules were for internal use. There was also a Knoxit Liquid that could be applied externally." From. Marvin, do you think yours is the sample size? There's a bit more on "Misbranding of Knoxit Liquid and Knoxit Globules. -v. 8 Bottles of Knoxit Liquid and 10 Bottles of Knoxit Globules.? Default decree of condemnation, forfeiture, and destruction...in truth and in fact,? the said products consisted (for the liquid) essentially of zinc acetate, hydras-? tine, berberine, and glycerin, and (for the globules) essentially of copaiba and? oil of cassia, and contained no ingredients or combination of ingredients ca?? pable of producing the curative and therapeutic effects claimed for them. On June 17, 1919, no claimant having appeared for the property, judgment? of condemnation and forfeiture was entered, and it was ordered by the court? that the product be destroyed by the United States marshal. E. D. BALL, Acting Secretary of Agriculture." From. (in reply to #1twin) Post #: 7

Thanks for the info Matt & surfaceone. Sorry I took so long to answer back. I do appreciate the replies.    Marvin (in reply to surfaceone) Post #: 8
