Re: WHOA! All I want for Christmas is…this POISON on Ebay!
The cobalt VAPO-CRESOLENE bottles came in two sizes. The sizes are 4" (2 ounce) and 5 1/4" (4 ounce). The cobalt bottles are English bottles. They both have a U.S. PATENT date on them but were sold in England only not in the U.S.A.
I think I remember seeing several of these back in 1967!!!! It looks like the air medical injection guns that they used on us in the ARMY. We were in California fixing too leave TRAVIS AIR FORCE BASE enroute to beautiful SOUTH VIETNAM!!!!! We had too line up single file and walk down between...
It took a while but I have the dates of RUDY'S books. Volume 1 was published in 1988 and volume 2 was published in 1989. RUDY had started a third volume but it was never completed. I assume the reason this bottle never appeared in RUDY'S books is that no one ever sent him a picture of the...
Your bottle is classified as a KO-35. It is known too exist in the colors aqua, green, olive green and cobalt. It is known too exist it the sizes 5 3/4, 6 1/2, 8 1/2 and 11 inches tall. It is a relatively common English (United Kingdom) bottle. It probably contained AMMONIA . On a good day it...
i WAS JUST GUESSING AT THE TIME FRAME FOR THIS BOTTLE. I NEVER NOTICED THAT THE PATENT DATE WAS 1937 UNTIL JUST NOW . THAT COULD VERY EASILY BE THE TIME FRAME FOR THIS BOTTLE. I AM NOT SURE OF THE PUBLICATION DATES OF RUDY'S BOOKS. I WILL CHECK ON THAT AND GET BACK TOO YOU. YES! ALL THREE OF MY...
I have never seen an example of this bottle with a label. As you know any label can be stuck on any bottle. I have never looked for the patent on this bottle because I don't know how too check for patents. maybe someone on THE FORUM can lelp us with that problem.

Hi Surfaceone, I hope you and your family are having a wonderful CHRISTMAS DAY!!! In response too your thread on the PHARMACY bottle in question. After reading your last post it dawned on me the point you are trying too make. I also beleive like you do that the bottle was designed for any...
I have three of the above POISON bottles in my collection. One is 1 oz.(3 1/2 tall) the other is 8 oz. (6 5/8 tall) and both are ABM cork top bottles. They both have only the checkered design in both left and right front panels. I also have 4 oz. (5 1/2 tall) screw top ABM bottle. It has a...
I think Greg has this bottle confused wth the amber KH-27 which is multi sided and is amber in color. This bottle you have is a KV-6 and has two side panels and a rounded back not multi sides. It is a very common bottle but I have never seen it in amber. Your cobalt SHARP & DHOME comes in two...
