Nice Skull & Crossbones Poison
This is a scarce and highly sought after poison from Philadelphia. It has a lot going for it, a super purplish cobalt color, ribbed sides, bold poison logo, and the desirable skull and crossbones motif on both shoulders. Hand blown, circa 1890. Plus, it's embossed with the pharmacy. You won't see many of these for sale!
Embossed: (skull & crossbones pic) / POISON // (repeats other side) // (base) H. K. MULFORD CO / 82 / PHILA
Height: 3 1/4".
Condition: would be perfect attic mint except for one no harm flaw, a pair of very subtle and teeny halfmoon bruises in the top of the lip. No chips, cracks etc. Perfectly clean too.
