    Shipping
    :
    FREE
    domestic shipping.   We DO ship Internationally but we do NOT insure International orders unless buyer specifically requests this and we are able to provide an insurance estimate.  If an international shipping charge is much more than the actual shipping cost, we will refund the excess so what YOU pay for shipping/insurance is very close to, if not exactly, the ACTUAL shipping costs! This is important for foreign buyers to know as most of our foreign shipping charges are estimates.  We do not falsify information on the Customs Form, such as a price other than what the actual purchase price is, so please do not request us to do so. We ship several times a week and your prompt payment will hasten the turn-around time.
    This bottle is still corked and still has a trace of ROSE WATER in it.
    Though this bottle is old and original, the paper label is a color photo copy, a facsimile made from the an original label that is on one of these exact bottles. This was done to give the bottle more of an original look, to see what type of products were sold by the Owl Drug Company in these bottles, and since very few antique bottles have survived the elements of time with paper label's intact, most collector's will never have an opportunity to own one.
    These old WHITE MILK GLASS Owl Drug bottles come in 6 different sizes, from the smallest 3 1/4" tall size (1 ounce) up to the 6" tall size (8 ounces).  This one is a smaller one, about a 2 oz. size.
    Most of these milk glass bottles contained cosmetic lotions and scents, hand/face cream, like Jergens lotion of today, hygienic cleansers, Calamine Lotion for poison oak, sun burn and skin cures, so the white bottles were a reflection of lotions they carried and the pure, clean, and unblemished look that would result from the use of them.   This is a super nice example of one of these bottles that looks like it was never in the ground
