    Dr. Baldwins Apple Tonic

    Ok, I know kind of what it is, it's an apple tonic. But other than that, I have no information on it at all.

    1930' - 50's farm dump

    New member, getting back into glass again!

    Hi folks, found this awesome forum since I recently got back into the bottles. I can't believe how big the hobby has grown over the years with availability, websites, cleaning, etc. I'm sure eBay had a lot to do with that. A little about me. I got into digging bottles back in the early 1980's...
