I just got this. I saw an older post that said someof these were common, but some variation very rare. Does anyone have any more info?

The ones in the cobalt color like yours are very common and will bring about six to eight dollars, there are some of them in greens light blues, grays and even yellow green, those bring some pretty good bucks over thirty dollars in most cases.......Welcome to the forum!

I dug one of these in amber when I was a kid and it's the only one I'd ever seen in that color so I do know they are out there. I let that one go a long time ago and regret doing so every time I think of it. Anyone have any idea what it may have been worth? Will help to pour a bit more salt on that wound......

Thanks!!! Yeah, me too. It was a beauty in that color. I've always liked the shape of laxols. There are a few pieces I wanna cry about when I think of how I let them go. I dug and collected when I was a younger but sold off my collection in my late 20's. I'm close to 40 now. Still keep my eye open for quality pieces here and there and have been interested in getting more serious again. That bottle bug NEVER lets you go!!! Plan to dig this summer.

Here is a recent acquisition of a varient that I have never seen before. It is a deeper teal green than the camera picks up.....more like a JSP or a teal gargling oil. It is embossed Laxol//AJ White, LTD. There is no Laxol on reverse shoulder and no base marks. I have seen them in cobalt without the base patent info before but never this varient. Wasn't aware of a British (Ltd.) varient. There is also a grass green varient identical to the usual cobalt ones but it isn't AJ White. I can't recall the company but I think it was also from New York. I'd love to see an amber one. I had one that was a light aqua color before with no unusual embossings. Sold it, like a dummy, when I too was a kid. Jack

Had to cut loose a whopping $40 bucks for it on the bay, including shipping. Not too bad considering it's my favorite color....so much so, I painted my house teal! HA!
