Hi Kev,
This I thought was an interesting Cure listed on ebay. http://cgi.ebay.com/Kitchels-Wind-Puff-Cure-Coldwater-Michigan-With-Label_W0QQitemZ6236564897QQcategoryZ895QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem
Thank you for thinking of me,Cali! The only prerequsite in my collection is that the bottle be embossed with the word CURE,KURE,CURATIVE CURING or any derivitive of the word "CURE". However,the Jaynes is a wonderful bottle ,many times people will list a bottle as a cure when it is really strictly,only a medicine.This is particularly common in England where they tend to call all medicines cures.I also collect Lyons powder and similar insect bottles such as John Henry,Kyles persian powder ,Johnsons,Reynards powder etc. If you put me onto a insect powder that I need for my collection I will pay you a bounty of $25.00 just for arranging it.If its somthing like a large size Lyons the bounty will be $50.00 or more.Only stipulation is that I need the bottle,acquire and it for my collection. I collect only Lyons shaped bottles,try to to get too broad in my collectings so I stay away from Dead stuck,Tragers etc. Years ago there were loads of insect powders and nobody paid much attention to them,now it's like pulling teeth! Thank you again for taking the time to write! Merry Chriatmas and Happy Holidays!,Kev P.S. Here is a picture of some so you get the idea!
Dear Jason,I appreciate your reply but already have two or three variations of the Bauers cure,if you come up with any others please let me know.There are over 3000 embossed cure bottles out there and I have about 850 of them so there's plenty I need but also quite a few I have.It was nice of you to think of me for cures,keep your eyes open,you never know what might pop up!
