Lovely bottles those Rows. The left earlier example is found in Australia in a huge range of colours, I saw a collection of them once that was simply outstanding. They come in black glass, cobalt blue, green, yellow, amber and many shades in between. There is a possibility that these were made at one of the early Australian glass works.

To Road Dog and Bostaurus - Hello, I live in New Zealand and was interested in your discussion on Rows Farmers Friend bottles. I dug one up in the late '70s in my garden which was situated next to an old staging post. I knew nothing about it until I read your posts and viewed your photographs - it was wonderful! I kept hold of this bottle, which is green by the way, because I just loved its size and shape and had a feeling about it. Can you give me any further information please, including a range of its possible value? Many thanks.

Melinda has these bottles now. Here is a 1880 ad from Australia. Rowe's seems to have be in the colonies around 20 years as of 1880.
