nothing special, but its the first bottle I've found with the label and cork still there. Actually has some extraxt left in there. Watkins embossed on back also.

Nice Find. While there may not be any great monetary value in a labeled Watkins, it's invaluable information to all those collectors who have dug those Watkins bottles with the embossing and wondered what came in them. Clear embossed bottle without the label , $1 on a good day. Cork, label, and contents $5 to $10 at the Auctions that I attend. I remember the "Watkins Man" who made his rounds on Saturdays with his "Rolling Store" vechicle loaded down with Watkins products. Some women swore that their flavorings were the best money coud buy, and the number of empty bottles in dumps shows there were a lot of use of the Watkins products.

Its amazing what you find left in old places. I once stopped to check out what was left of an old house and picked up an old tobacco tin. Opened it up and found a $5.00 Silver Certificate inside!!

Cool find, ncbred!!
