Have you guys ever thought about where the phrase, your paying for the bottle came from?

One of the big selling points of the Swaim's copycats was they sold for only 1.00, half the price of Swaims.

Steve,


I picked this up yesterday at the Baltimore Bottle club meeting. The bottle does have some cracks but I think I got it for a great deal at $10. Can't believe this was from 1820's. Glad I bought it.

Quite rare Marc, and a great pick up for you, glad I posted this topic and was able to help someone identify and gain a nice addition to his collection.If you send me some pictures of your Baltimore Meds I will put them on my site as part of this section. Could I post these pictures you added of your bottle also if you would send them to me.
