    Pharm bottle? New Orleans

    Thanks for the info. Anyone know what the funky looking "3i" means? Is the left side notation for drams or something like that. I actually don'e even know what a dram is, I've just heard the word. -john

    Is this pre-1900?

    Alright! Thanks Relicsnstuff. I wonder what the "& M" stands for after CCS? I'd love to read the whatever info you have for them. I haven't much about them on the web. -john

    Is this pre-1900?

    Hmmm, that sounds good to me, Treasure Rat. Coins are what I mainly collect. I'll have to look a little closer at that dirt pile if it doesn't rain tonight.

    Is this pre-1900?

    Thanks for all that info Kelley. That is pretty interesting. I think it is really neat that a bottle over a 100 years old was just poking out of a pile of dirt in front of my house!! Now I think I have the bug for old bottles!! -John

    Is this pre-1900?

    Found this on my street where they are doing repairs on the water main. My side walk is one big pile of dirt, but hey, I pulled this out of the pile, as the luck of the Irish would have it. It is 8 x 2 1/2 inches. It says horozontally on the front "C.C.S. & M. CO. / 270 TO 274 ROYAL ST. / NEW...

    Lecendre's. great looking find

    This is my favorite bottle that I have found lately. It says "Lecendre's/ Drug Store/ New Orleans" I think the bottom says "CLS co." Nobody around town has heard of this company but a 92 year old neighbor seems to remember it being on the corner of Saint Charles and Napolean here in town...

    Katz & Bestoff bottle

    Here is a great piece of New Orleans culture that I found in my backyard while digging recently. Actually I found about 8 of them 2 feet down. Some old drug addict hiding a habit years back? Not much has changed in this city, then. I'm not sure how old they are, but the K&B company started in...

    Pharm bottle? New Orleans

    I really like this bottle I found recently. I think it is an old druggist bottle. The left side has numbers going up the side; 2,4,6 and at the bottom is a funky looking three that is probably a symbol and not a number. The right side says "cc" (cubic centimeters) and has 10, 20 up the side...

    Early 1900's New Orleans. Dug in my back yard!

    Here are a few bottles I have come across in the last few months while planting bushes in my small back yard (30x15feet). I live in urban New Orleans and would like to know if anyone can add any ifo on these bottles. I really like the iridescent look to these bottles, but I would like to...
