I like that bottle. I have no idea of value, but it being "pure and without drugs or poison" the label makes it a cool find.

Very cool bottle. Joseph WinterHalter owned a saloon in Saginaw in 1896 and then in 1909 he was a dealer in wholesale and retail wines,liquors and cigars and an agent for Kern's Port Huron beer and bottling works. The bottle was more than likely made for him when he owned the saloon. Great find.

Hey Pikes, nice find right there, with the bail and all too. Did you dig that one? We find whiskeys and gins with that same saying on it about drugs and poison. Crazy stuff. Thats a cool find. Keep it going! jgas

Gas !!! your alive !!! Good to hear from ya. This is the first time we have seen embossing like this,although it seems quite common out your way. I guess you could say it is dug, everybody else was diggin,I was walking around looking into the raspberry bushes picking at old cans and iron and such,when I pulled out a can and under it I could see an amber bottle showing and reached down and pulled it out :headbang: Been gettin into any pits ???? you should be due to find 3-4 flasks or around 15 hutchs by now 8-)
