Later ones were embossed Made In Taiwan. I ain't believing 12 bids have run that up to $26.00... < Message edited by whiskeyman -- 9/27/2007 12:04:23 PM > _____________________________ * Member: Bristol Historical Assoc...and, Friends of Steeles Creek Nature Center & Park President: Bristol Tenn-Va Bottle Club Author of: Spirits & Medicinal Bottles of Bristol,TN-VA.

Thanks for the info, I was wondering about that because the Wheaton ones all seemed to be marked on the bottom, as were the little Taiwan ones. I noticed none of the bidders seem to be familiar medicine collectors. _____________________________ Looking for Frederick Maryland and Dr Fahrney Bottles 2008 Medicine Bottle Price Guide on CDROM http://www.mattsoldhouse.com/MC/bottles/BottleBook2008.htm email http://www.mattsoldhouse.com/MC/bottles/email.jpg (in reply to whiskeyman) Post #: 3
