[reptilekeeper]

Hello all, I must say this site has gotten me Hooked big into the world of bottle collecting. I have been just a digging fool and live in a area that is just dotted with UNDUG!! old farm dumps. Anyway yesterday I dug up a Dr Flints Quaker Bitters Providence, Rhode Island, it is aroung 10 inches tall I know bitters are collectable, any info on this one would be great.

Kovells says $85.00 for one in an older book, $550.00 for a labeled one in a newer book.

POST A PICTURE! Love to see this bitters!

There are a couple of variations of the Quaker Bitters.
One of them is more scarce than the other.
I've dug both, over the years.

Old Dr. Warren's Quaker Bitters is the older and more scarce of the Quaker bitters.
