This year's show was a great one. I picked up some quality RI bottles for great prices. It was also the first show I set up with half a table. Consequently that made it the first show that I made more money than I spent! Enjoy the pics...
Ok, this was an ebay win, but just came in yesterday. A George Fink Providence, RI "tall squat" soda.
Hughesdale Manufacturing Co. Providence, RI. An early Rumford's copycat
The real prize of the day, an unlisted RI cure! New RI cures only show up once every few decades (if ever), so I consider myself very fortunate to own this one.
Huston's Consumption Cure Providence, RI
An uncommon sample size Dr. Hayne's Arabian Balsam
Barbour's Westerly & Watch Hill, RI. Note the backwards A
Barbour's "Nesterly" RI. The mold maker for the Barbours bottles wins the award for most errors lol
Edwards Prescription Pharmacy Pacoag, RI. A tough town to find bottles from.
A sharp looking Quality Drug Providence, RI
I have a ton of variants from this prolific merchant, George A. Peckham
Finally, I was able to acquire a script embossed Woonocket Coca-Cola. Actually, I got two of them!
The show wouldn't be complete without a nice Davis Vegetable Pain Killer
Couldn't pass this lip up...
And lastly, while not a RI bottle, it was pretty irresistible. Hughes Witch Hazel Price 25 Cents.
