Unlisted Green Poison ????

Longhunter · Apr 24, 2012

I got this one at a flea market yesterday. I can't seem to find this one in the books.
I almost missed the fact that it says "POISON" until after I picked it up to take a look at it.
Anybody ever seen one of these? (Stephen?? Jerry?? Anybody???)

The oposite side is smooth for a label.

Here is a shot of the bottom:

I have never seen this bottle before. I almost positive that is English. England is just about the only country that embossed the word POISON on the bottom front panel of their bottles. Some examples are the KC-54, KJ-19, KR-11, KR-70, KS-3 and KS-33. Some Australian bottles have POISON embossed on the lower front but they all have other embossing above on the same panel. Since it is a screw cap that pretty well puts it between the 20's and the present day. I personally think it is from the 30's to 40's. I personally think it is a great find. A lot of collectors don't collect screw caps. I would be interested in one if you run across another one. Maybe we could work out a trade on something I have for sale. I have been collecting POISON bottles for thirty five years. I know one thing for sure DON'T EVER think you have seen it all!!! A classic example is the KR-94 J.A. McCoach poison bottle. You would think as intricate as it is that they would have made several of them. As of today there is only one example known too exist. WHO KNOWS!!! Your bottle could be ONE OF A KIND!!! Congradulations on this find!!!!!!
