I picked this up last weekend at a garage sale, older gentleman said he worked excavation years ago. He had plenty to offer, hutches, blobs and this one squat. Not having one on the shelf I had to have it. Elias Barth, Burlington, NJ, 7" smooth base w/"B", nice applied lip.
As soon as the weekend gets here, I plan on pulling out all the apothecary's and posting a group photo. There are 61 total in the lot I bought, the rest were what I previously posted and some commons.
Only posting these cause I've never seen the smaller versions before, pint and half pint. If I'm correct Red Book says 1267-2, nice to have the lids and the jars are mint. They came from my pickup this weekend.

Well in the boxes I found three items that I just dont...
If anyone collects from this area, I saw these tonight. Short notice, but the pharm looks nice.
There's a couple of pics of the pharm and a local milk they're claiming as rare.

If anyone knows of anything, it would be appreciated.
Thanks, Mark
