    What is everyone's favorite hutch bottle?

    This is my only Hutch and it is local to me. After some research, it most likely dates to 1900 plus or minus a couple of years.

    Just found, question on value

    Clare, Yes, this is the patent date. I think that it is commonly confused with the production date, at least according to listings on eBay.

    Just found, question on value

    Thanks for the info Andy. I do have one to sell, and one to keep. The value of the one to keep is much higher because it has meaning to me. The one to sell does have some realistic price and I appreciate the suggestions from everyone. I'll have to see what the market will support. I've seen...

    Yonkerman's Tuberculozyne

    Yeah, that's often the most interesting part to me. I like local bottles that I can tie to the area and others that have an interesting history to them. What you found is similar to an ad from the London Mail newspaper in 1903. My interest in old medicines goes beyond the bottles.....I'm just...

    Yonkerman's Tuberculozyne

    He had a production facility in Kalamazoo starting between 1900 and 1903. He was pretty much out of business by the 20s, as best as I have been able to determine. It took the feds to shut him down. The analysis was done by the bureau of chemistry in the USDA. The actual article describing...

    Grammar Nazi Trigger Warning!

    Thanks Robby. No offense taken! My father was a child in France throughout the war- his cousin was murdered. My mother's family came from Poland and Romania. Many never made it.

    Yonkerman's Tuberculozyne

    Hello all, I recently obtained this bottle of Yonkerman's Tuberculozyne, probably bottle one. The treatment, according to Yonkerman's book, included some from bottle one and some from bottle two. I rarely even see picture of the bottles, less so the bottles themselves. I like it because it...

    Grammar Nazi Trigger Warning!

    I appreciate the need for good grammar, the mistakes that happen, and I prefer the words "grammar police." The word Nazi is a trigger for me, having lost relatives to the Nazis and having been to Auschwitz and Birkenau twice.. This is a gentle suggestion, not a flame at people who use the word...

    Just found, question on value

    I have a sealed box VC, an open box with the full bottle (like Clare's, no color) and insert, and also the lamp in an open box with an insert. I'm interested in keeping them, although I would be willing to sell the open box. I'll be teaching a college course for new students on the history of...

    Just found, question on value

    Thank you all for your answers. I figured it was from about the 40s based on the other things near it.

    Found in pharmacy basement

    I'm going to pick it up on Friday. I have no idea how to value it- I haven't found any similar with selling prices (I'm also a fairly new collector). If you have a ballpark, that would be helpful. Thanks!
