It should be a good auction. He sure messed up on some of the OT hutch descriptions in the catalog tho lol... I laughed when I seen the Indiana Territory description. Those all marked OT or IT are Oklahoma Territory and Indian Territory. I'm sure he's had quite a few emails about that [8D]

The catalog is tough . From descriptions to printer , there is always a chance for something going wrong . You really will have to see the videos to see the proper descriptions .......... Mike

The Bitter Witch bottle is interesting.

It was apparently a medicine made by Pratt (new life, abolition oil, etc).
Odd form for a medicine. Odd name too.
I saw an ad from around 1875.
Anyone know anything about it?

Those queens are tough ones and will probably really do good. Some nice western bitters in there as well as some good meds.

the Bodie is nice, I love that Bitter Witch, what color! And the Wynkoop,s Tonic Mixture... wowza... imagine finding all those bottles in an attic!..

How could I not mention the Willington pickle? No less all the way west from CT out of the basement of Charlie Gardner? And from my hometown...

Of course the crown jewel from a historical stand point for us Placervillians is the very strange S J Alden bottle that turned up in Massachusetts? I think I need to come down and see that in person...
