    Description

    You are bidding on a
    BEAUTIFUL SPECIMEN...VERY EARLY "TERRITORIAL" ....AND A HISTORIC WESTERN DRUGGIST WHO MIGRATED FROM ICONIC BODIE CALIFORNIA
    Antique pharmacy
    TERRIFIC DARKER SUN PURPLE COLOR, NICE SMALL TO MEDIUM SIZE 4" TALL VARIETY
    / drug store bottle once used at
    A DRUG STORE, PHARMACY
    and it says "
    A. B. STEWART & BRO. -- DRUGGISTS-- TACOMA WASH T. (DRUG STORE)
    " in 1880s era,  in historic old downtown
    TACOMA, W.T. (Washington Territory
    This is an important and historic western drug bottle.....it is "territorial" and says "WASH. T." on it.....but not only that......this druggist "A.B. STEWART" operated in the iconic ghost town of Bodie California before migrating up to the Pacific Northwest.....this bottle is rare, and collectible.
    THIS IS A BEAUTIFUL SPECIMEN ....HOPING YOU CAN TELL  HOW NICE THIS ONE IS FROM MY AVERAGE PICTURE TAKING ABILITY :)...THIS IS A GREAT BOTTLE AND TOLD A TOUGH TO FIND VARIETY...THIS BOTTLE IS A BEAUTY, I CAN FIND NO DEFECTS, CRISP EMBOSSING...I AM NOT AN EXPERT IN PACIFIC NORTHWEST MEDICINE BOTTLES...THIS CAME OUT OF A DRUG STORE BOTTLE COLLECTION FROM ALL OVER THE UNITED STATES...HAS NEVER BEEN CLEANED OR RINSED OUT (a little dirt inside)
    I
    have always been told that the pharmacist "A.B. Stewart" was issued medicine bottles for the historic ghost town of Bodie California.....for anyone
    who collects that town....this is a killer go with.
    ALSO, WASHINGTON BECAME A STATE IN 1889....SO THIS BOTTLE LIKELY ISSUED IN 1880'S
    I have inspected this bottle, terrific light sun purple color....seems really nice..glass is very nice, embossing is crisp, (see gallery)...displays well, a
    smaller
    sized bottle , measures about 4" tall, believe early 1880s
    Gallery pictures should show you all you need to know, took pictures from many angles.
    Nice antique
    bottle, AND
    RARE "TERRITORIAL" W.T. & HISTORIC DRUGGIST (CAME FROM BODIE, CAL) .....NICE MEDIUM SIZE SUN PURPLED VARIETY, 4" TALL
    VARIETY
    ...from historic old region of
    TACOMA, WASH.T. aka WASHINGTON TERRITORY
    All my bottles are carefully packed in bubble wrap and oversized rigid box to make sure they get to you as you see them :)
    Thanks so much for looking....collect and invest in history!!!!!
    Tangible assets are always the best ones
