bottled in 1917, made for medicinal purposes
1 pint; bottle 9 inches high, 4 inches wide
CONDITION: appears to be in original condition
PROVENANCE: inherited from H.N. Swanson
$400-600 for a single bottle; $8,000-12,000 for the entire group of 19 bottles *
*represents a fair-market value for auction purposes; retail or asking price may vary.
Please let us know if you have additional items to appraise, and thank you again for using Mearto.
Would it be beneficial to upload pictures of all 19 bottles and boxes? I can easily do so. All liquid in inside, and clear. All original packaging and no seals have been broken.
If you can get all 19 bottles into one (attractive - by which I mean, staged so things show well) photo that would be more than sufficient for this. I'll update the appraised value for all of them once you do.
Thanks!
Delia
