Here is a different Burnett bottle, I dig them in the 100's if not even the 1000's but I have never seen this one. In my research I found a nice history on the company and they do show this bottle and put it 1870 - 1890 time frame. I am wondering if there is any value to it? Here is a link to the history of Burnett pretty well put together.

And here is a couple of pictures of the bottle. Thanks Mike

I am with Matt on this one. It is not common, however, it is a Burnett's. It is an older example, probably from the late 1870's to early 1880's or so. I would guess about $40-$60 like Matt suggested. The color & shape means everything on that one. Cool bottle.

Man, remeber that good month or two way back, when burnett's were selling for 150 plus on the bay. Miss those days.

Hey City thanks for the bids on those inks, Hope all is well and the dirt is treating you alright
