This is one of my favorite bottle shows to go to, as deals abound if you look carefully. I found some nice RI bottles and a few others that I couldn't pass up.
The first order of the day, I got back my tumbled Dr. Hams!
My first Old Dr. Warren's Quaker Bitters Prov.RI. This is the scarce version with Quaker Bitters in a slugplate. Does anyone have more info on this from a bitters book?
The partial label. It has an 1870 patent date, while most have the 1872 patent.
A presumably rare Bayer bottle from the late 1800s. It's embossed phenacetine on the shoulder, which was the first product they put out.
A nice Price Bros. Boston whiskey. What struck me as odd was the telephone number! I've never seen a BIM bottle with a phone number on it before.
A gift from a friend of mine. Turbitt & Orme Providence, RI soda
I love the heel embossing: Two cents will be paid for the return of this bottle.
Lastly a pictorial soda. John Tebo Fisherville, Mass. with embossed dog.

] I thought there was something mighty familiar about it. It was my favorite bottle of your "Big haul" post... Looks great cleaned up.
