    Description

    Glass 1/2 Oz. Medicine Bottle - Porch & Crook - Druggists - Eureka Springs
    Not a great looking bottle, but for collectors of "things Eureka", you will know this is a tough type thing to find. Not much info online about Porch & Crook, though I did find two mentions, one states they were a new store in 1894. The other is an ad from same period, which puts them in the Wadsworth Floyd Building, which is one of the upper "hearts of town", and sits at what locals call Pendergrass Corner. Bottle is 3" tall x 1.125" wide x .625" thick. Has a weird triangular chip on the underside of the flat lip. I have included several pics of this damage. The bottle has some
    iridescence, cloudiness/corrosion. Made in a two part mold, no mark on base, took a cork closure.
    Buyers are expected to pay for items won within three days of the end of an auction. I am always happy to combine shipping when possible.
