The thread is in Poisons, link below: https://www.antique-bottles.net/forum/New-Poison-Discovery-m667420.aspx#667420 We had this for a few months, but I only went public with it after our club newsletter was released, which it was today.
The newsletter arrived today. This means the rest of our club has this news in hand (or will shortly). So I may now share it with the rest of you. Some time ago, I got the opportunity to buy a bottle. It didn't start out that way, but I knew it would end up that way (well, hoped it would)...
History of Drug Containers and Their Labels I read a few pages when I came across it in Google Books. I did find it on Amazon for a wide rage of prices. I found a seller for $20 new, so I grabbed it. Seems to have a wealth of info and from one post, there are other publications that go with...
Been a while since I popped in. Nice to see a lot of familiar faces. My life has me busy and haven't been collecting much in the past 3 years. Did pick up gem recently, which I will share next month. Next year may be another big year for us. May be moving back south if everything goes well...

Ok, here we go again. These look scary and obviously not authentic as posted. But if you put 2 things together, someone is bound to bite.... http://www.ebay.com/itm/A...mp;hash=item3390191e1f
Ok, this looks oober cool, but what's wrong with this picture is obvious....or is it? http://www.ebay.com/itm/ULTRA-RARE-Antique-Skull-Poison-Figural-Glass-Bottle-Cup-Pharmacy-Sterilize-LOOK-/121350831136?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item1c4112bc20 The label looks to have age, or was made to look...
Has anyone bought from sdmad33? seems the seller is very fold of any bottle that has POISON on it, regardless. Check them out here: http://www.ebay.com/sch/m..._sacat=0&_from=R40
Just for a few weeks. The site is hosted on my ISP as part of my account. We are in the middle of moving, so that account will be closed today. I cant say when we will be back online in our new location, but I will get it back up and running as soon as I can. But it will probably be...

I had the honor the other day by being contacted by a descendent of the Shuptrine family, the oldest and most recognized Druggist in Savannah. He has a few bottles left from his family's estate. Neither of which, looks like the bottle we are after. In fact, I have never seen this one before...
I noticed these 2 in the poison arena this week.....and they just dont seem right to me. The seller has a whole bunch of different items for sale, not just bottles...but these just seem wrong to me. The green one looks like it may have been made by the same people making the German Half Post...
I dont know if it's the same or just another one of this form, but for some reason, they have been selling.

As some of you know, Jake, our beloved friend and pet, had a battle with Bamboo poisoning about a month back. On top of that, he suffered a stroke from the anesthesia that he had for his annual shots. He shown signs of improvement in the last week or so, but soon deteriorated afterwords. So...
May 19th, 5 years ago, My wife and I got married. It has not all been pretty rare glass and bottles-o-plenty. It's been a very rough road since I got laid off on 1/12/09. Even though I have been working now for 16 months, the debts to pay back for being off work for 2 years has really...
Not a poison, but who cares?!?! It's so cute and purdy!
