I recently dug my first Vermifuge bottle and then I dug a second the next day. The Dr. Fraga's is attributed too Key West I know but the other one I found is a different shape. I'm wondering if they are related in any way?

Hard to say if they are from the same company, but I am sure that Key West, like every other city without clean water and out door toilets, had an intestinal worm problem at some time in the past. Scott

To all og you. This set of pictures illustrate the air venting requirements battled in a lot of multi- paneled bottles where extensive venting nibs can be seen on every letter. The air just cant get out of the face vents on the parting face when the parison form is blown out to the mold faces where the air can be trapped. I saved all three for later reference - if I can find them whe I need em. RED Matthews
