Only a couple more to post, here is a rarer embossing variant of well-known G.G. Burnett bottles.

You have a lot of really great San Francisco druggists there. Are you digging these? Maybe I should re-phrase that, because "I" am digging those. Are you finding these in the ground?

These are some druggist bottles I wanted to add to this thread; all of these were "found" ("Digging and Finding"[;)]) at bottle shows or antique shows during the 1980s and early 1990s.
The Dickey was purchased from Vince Madruga at the San Jose bottle show at the Santa Clara County fairgrounds, I think the second-to-
the-last show they ever put on.
Both of these G.G. Burnett examples were found at the Santa Rosa bottle show many moons in the past...

This is a great thread, and liked seeing the local druggists including the California ones. I know there are many Virginia diggers on this forum, and thought I could contribute a few from a small town of only 1800 people. These are three different designs of the Gordonsville, VA Stratton druggist bottles I have dug. Not pictured are two smaller versions and one melted from the devastating fire of 1916 that burned most of the town. I actually dig mostly Richmond druggists in my area, which is about 60 miles away. Many Baltimores were also found, but few from D.C area.
