Barber bottle

[imukdiver]

This baby was in a pit not less than 4 hours ago !! LOL, here is the question. Is this a barbers bottle , or something else ? It has no embossing, or inner label at all. Stands about 12 inches tall.

Hey Pete,

What a beauty! I'd be saying a "something else," entirely. A true Lady's Leg, that one.

Beautiful bottle, sir. Thanks for showing us, and I hope these won't be the last photos of it that you post.

Thank you surfacecone and LC ! I appreciate the info. Im surprised to hear its a bitters, not the normal styles im used to seeing. Really shocked I didn't snap the neck off either when I dug it out. It looked like a really common local blob and I kinda just yanked it out. [8|] I guess the bottle gods were smiling on me .

Man, Pete, you aren't kidding. They had ear-to-ear grins! You gotta be delirious...

Great looking bottle with a beautiful patina, to my eyes. I wanna see more photos when you have a chance, please.

Amazingly Pete, these bottles are very tough and hold up well in the ground and the water somehow....I love em' myself...

I thought the top was made a bit different from most of that type of bitters .
