    My Med Display

    Hi all,

    I thought that since I have been posting in this section maybe I ought to show some of what I have. None of it is spectacular, but I like it.

    This particular cabinet is 99% patent medicines (my favorite). All are blown in mold with manually applied neck and lip. Some are common, some not so common. The non-med bottles are a local hutch, and two crude unembossed flasks. Some dug, some purchased. The two handled jugs on the floor dug, the two crocks were in the cellar when I moved in.

    I have other types of bottles and jars in the house and in the shed, but this is my only formal display.

    Thanks for looking,

    Mr R
