I'm not sure if this is the right section of the forum for this, but I figured with strychnine and arsenic it was close enough?
I've got a Cassebeer's Iron & Manganese Peptonate bottle sealed with full contents and label in great condition. I'm not sure if this is something I can even sell, but I was wondering what the value might be on something like this?

OMG! And this was prescribed to people? Even tho, technically, this isn't a poison bottle due to the lack of embossing, it's defiantly nasty stuff that was put in it. Quite the conversation piece.

That is one heck of a bottle! I used to collect sealed bottles but sold them years ago. I've got 3 little ones running around and I just kept thinking of the mess if they busted one.
