Hey Ron,

The larger of the two has a nice black full iron pontil. The smaller one has an open pontil.

Hi Grim... not with the cork and foil still on them. I think that speaks for itself. However, if you can tell me how a bottle with it's cork and foil still on it could possibly have been refilled with a foreign substance, I would greatly appreciate it. In the meantime, I'll take another pill for my high-strungedness!


John.

I finally found a pic of a Price's with a label. This ought to put the record straight.

Sorry - I had no intention to wind anybody up! I was just posting info that is taken pretty much for granted in the UK about these bottles, but which I thought from the previous postings was not widely known in the States.[8|]
On the subject of refilling, I have a labelled Prices bottle in my own collection. It's an English bottle with improved / iron pontil, but with the American label shown here stuck to the back! Shows just how re-cycled this kind of container was, way back when.

I found a med bottle which lists glycerine and paraffin as active ingerdients. I states it as a salve for all boyyles.
Sorry I couldn't resist. Here is a legit sort of crossover bottle I found though. It's a med and cosmetic.
