    Got some old pharmaceutical bottles a few weeks ago and finally have had the time to photograph them. Here is one of my favorites ....

    Any idea on how old it is?

    Hi Joe,
    Nice bottle but we need to see the seams to gave an age. Turn your bottle about 90 degrees.

    Hi Joe,
    Your magus bottle is from about 1912 at the earliest.

    Was it a Christmas cracker?

    I went hunting today at the Ill Will, if for no other reason than I get antsy if I don't go looking at least once a week. There were two jars, both of stuff that had been on the shelf and didn't sell. Nuthin'...until I looked up on another shelf, and some angels started singing. Or Iris Apfel did anyway. Pulled it out and turned it over and BINGO. Chanel. As the saying goes, I couldn't get it out of the store fast enough.

    I miss you guys. I have been tired for weeks, and the Tuesday before Christmas I thought I was going to pass out at work.... called my primary care and had her order blood tests. Turns out my Epstein Barr virus had reactivated the third time in 8 years (the virus that causes mono.) So I have been down for awhile, but getting cabin fever like crazy. Maybe I will venture out for a little while tomorrow. I love looking at all of your finds..... we have a huge flea market coming up soon, I hope to be up for it.
