new display for Vermont Collection

[epgorge]

The little bottle to the right rear of the Moxie is a lazell Dalley (sp?)... picked it up for a buck at a yard sale.

Skilton Foote pickles and a medicine I haven't identified yet, any help would be appreciated.

a better shot of the medicine I haven't identified. When did colored labels start appearing? Thanks for the help and nice words.

I am heading to another auction soon and will keep you posted.

My guess would be thats a Weeks & Potter medicine from Boston. They were a big company and made a lot of stuff. Probably 1890 +/- .
Colored labels were used all through the 19th century , just more later than earlier...

Joel,
the display looks grrrrrrrrrreat! and everthing else around it looks fascinating. i'd love to just be poking around and seeing what you've got there. Where are you in Vermont?

Nice bottles and display case. First time I ever saw bottles displayed in that type of case that weren't in an antique mall. I like it.

"Cat breakage?" I know the feeling. Mine have to be enclosed in our built in china cabinet on the first floor for now because my wife has five of the leaping critters. I have one shelf (not window) high on an inside wall, no sunlight. The rest are in boxes on the third floor.

Last bottle you're going to buy? Somehow I don't believe you mean it.

What is on the shelves in the background? Show some pics of those please!!!

Thanks for sharing.


PD

Good job with the new display case. I love seeing how others display their collections, looks like you will soon be running out of room.
I don't like filling mine up to tight where the bottles are touching one another, so as I get new bottles to put on the shelf,before I put one up on the shelf one has to come off.
I like your Sands bottle, looks like it has some nice color. Almost pulled the trigger on a Skoda from Belfast Me.(amber)., but pulled out last second....
