Collectible Green Bottles, one a Poison Bottle, one Apothecary Bottle, Set of Two
This collection features two exquisite emerald green bottles that capture the charm of mid-20th century Americana.
The first piece is an Antrol Ant Killer poison bottle, embossed with "ANTROL ANT KILLER, BOYLE -MIDWAY INC., LOS ANGELES AND GRANFORD N.J., Lay on this side". Its tapered design is enhanced by a raised grass-like pattern on two sides, embodying the era's unique aesthetics. Standing at approximately 2 3/4 inches tall and measuring 1 3/8 inches at its widest point, this bottle is a captivating example of vintage advertising. Its original metal lid, although slightly rusted, adds character, while the deep emerald green glass showcases a few bubbles that hint at its handcrafted origins. The bottle's condition is remarkable — free from any chips or cracks, with a modest haze inside that speaks to its authenticity from the 1950s. Valued at around $40, it’s a must-have for collectors of unusual antiques.
The second bottle is an elegant medicinal piece, identified as a duraglass apothecary bottle, adorned with the number "23", and inscribed "1 oz" and "5A". This vintage gem stands at around 2 7/8 inches tall, with a rounded shoulder and square shape measuring approximately 1 1/4 inches per side. Its screw-off tin cap, while showing signs of soil and dents, operates smoothly—a testament to its durability and practical use in its time. Like its counterpart, this bottle is in good condition, without any chips or cracks and only a refined haze within.
Both of these bottles, rich in historical context, are perfect for sharing stories of a bygone era. We invite you to explore these unique pieces and enhance your collection with a slice of America’s past. Thank you for your continued interest in our curated antiques.
