I had this bottle come my way today. I wouldnt say it is a prized possession or anything, but the colors in this are really neat. It is embossed "PAINES""CELERY COMPOUND".Loaded with some stringy bubbles and the color has a redish hue to it.
Hi John,
Ive got one of those to.After i saw your's i looked it up in the KOVELL'S bottle guide and it is a 7.00 bottle.But,if you are like me price doesnt matter just as long as you like it.
Hi Eddie, Yep Im like you if it is an old bottle , I bring it home , clean it up and enjoy it. I am a seller though , so if it is a worthless bottle I leave it. I see in your interests you like milk bottles . If you want I will show you some nice ones I have found. Here is a pic of one nice 2 color pyro I found..........
Hi Eddie, This milk is a Titusville Dairy with a picture of the Drake oil well on it. Two color pyro, nice war slogan milk. I am in Pa. so not many Va. bottles turn up where I dig. Here is a picture of a Dykes Dairy milk , I found 3 of these last year. Two half pints and a quart. These have a picture of Uncle Sam on them.
EVEN though Paines is a common bottle,its also a great looking one at that!.I also started collecting bottles when i found a Pains at a flea market 10 yrs ago,and said wowo a bitters for 5 bucks!........,..but only 5 to 10 its worth.but the bottle isworth as much as you like it!
