A couple of Mineral Waters I dug, the cobalt is an iron pontil BRANDS MINERAL WATER TOLEDO, another hard one to find

Hopefully I can keep them up there for a while, I get to see & enjoy them more when they are right out in front of me all the time....Bill

Looks like somebody heard about the rule of 3. Dang good looking display, Bill. The glass, the wood, the rock, just all look great together.

That C N SHEPHARD is a nice one and the Toledo mineral waters is a hard one to find.
Over the years I have tried to buy or trade for a Sherpards but always came up short somehow.
Here is shot of a few bottles I dug up out of my boxes and added them to my one all types of bottle shelf.

A shelf in one of two cabinets. These are all English pontil meds, with one early black glass soda water in the middle (dates about 1815, and one of my favorite bottles even though it isn't a medicine).

The papers propped up at the back are the British patent specs for Cephalick Snuff (1773) and Essence of Peppermint (1762), with bottles for those two medicines on the same shelf.

A really nice looking display.
The flare lips are always nice when they come out with the lip intact.
Nice arrangement,
What are the two upright papers in the back about?
