I recently came across a Frank Tea & Spice castor oil bottle and was wondering if anyone could tell me how much a bottle such as this is worth. The bottle is clear and shaped like a flask and has a cork top. The bottle is about 5 1/2" tall and is embossed "2 Fl. Oz. Pure Castor Oil (in cursive script) The Frank Tea & Spice Co. Cinti." The bottle is in excellent condition. Any help is appreciated

I have seen quite a few Frank Tea and Spice jars , but have never seen or heard of that one . To a Frank's collector , that may be worth more than you think . Then too , I could be wrong .

Here's a picture of the bottle, sorry for the poor quality, I used the webcam on my laptop.

By the way, I was browsing an antique store the other day and I saw a bottle nearly identical to this one except that it was Turpentine instead of castor oil, also Frank Tea and Spice.

In my area , I have never came across one of these . I believe Cap knows quite a bit about the values of a lot of these items, hopefully we will get some input from him concerning this particular Frank's piece . I am surprised that there has yet to be a price guide made up for the Frank's by now , it has been a very collectable brand for quite a few years now.
