I don't think anything is too common to include in your collection. I appreciate that you thought of me but I have one already. The company was around for quite awhile and the bottles span a good bit of bottle history - from cures, to rememdies, to medicines and BIM to machine made, corks to screw lids. I just wish he had been around earlier so there was some pontiled ones!
Thanks again for the thought.

no problem.i've never really been into meds and bought them as 'fillers' to justify shipping on other bottles.now i have about 30 embossed and a tub full of 'plain ones.i'm kinda at a loss as to how or where to get rid of them.

That is true...I never thought much about the "Imperial"...it is rather pretentious. So many of the medicines had such over-the-top names. I guess anything would help 'mange' to sound better.

dmagave...if you have pets that visit the vets office you can save one of the bottles and give it to them as a gift. They tend to appreciate it and it may even lead to your bill being just a tiny bit smaller. It is worth a try.

That's a tough one. If everyone recycled them they would increase in value but then you wouldn't have them. I think that's a paradox?
