Thanks for the info. I'll put that on my calendar. My bottles are looking better every day. Just letting them sit with that good ole Mississippi water in them helped a lot.

I found a clear bottle 7 1/2 inches high marked St Cyr Fourcade, 215 Canal, cor Rampart St, NO. I was able to research Fourcade and found tht he was a pharmacist and had a shop at that location between 1870-1886.
The bottle seems to be in good shape without any nicks or cracks

Does anyone know what the value on something like this is

Hi CD and welcome to the forum, pic's would go a long way because N.O. meds can bring from $10 into the hundreds, take as many as you can including the lip and the bottom of the bottle and all embossing, Natural light behind the bottle would be best when taking pic's....and thanx for bringing up such an old post, you must really be doing your research....Jim

Thanks for the date on the Fourcade bottle. I have one also, along with a lot of other N O med bottles, dug in Biloxi.
Nice haul of bottles Ginny, and you didn't even have to dig them. Way to go! I would say the stenciled jug is your best find as was stated before. Too bad about that handle. There are some people that know how to replace the handle I am told. I brought home a couple handles today. Thanks for sharing the pics and welcome to the forum. Marvin

You've been fooled! Look at the date of the thread.

Thank you Wheelah. So exactly what kind of BS is this?? I didn't pay attention to the date obviously because I assumed it was a recent listing. I just found out I lost my wallet in the woods bottle hunting today, so I am really not in the mood for foolishness. Thanks again. Marvin
