    Description

    Here is a scarce  Greely's Bourbon Bitters bottle, Circa 1870's. It has a absolutely unusual color. In my opinion is is a light brown with of puce. The bottle has a 1/2" chip off the top lip of bottle. The bottom base of the bottle slightly indented that is normal. The base has been molded uneven, so it does not sit flat on a surface. I have applied some wax (can be removed) to make it sit flatter. I have that to do this on some of my other bottle.
    The embossing is a very sharp strike. It has some small entrapped unburst bubbles.  It is approx. 9 1/4" in height. Remember this is an old bottle and is not perfectly made. There are no returns, so ask all your questions before bidding. I will send more pix upon request.
    BTW. I took a comparison picture of a few of my other bottle that are more amber and light yellow amber. (THOSE BOTTLES ARE NOT INCLUDED)
