KS13. "BRYANT'S - STOMACH - BITTERS",
(Ring# B243), clear olive green, octagonal with lady's leg neck,
sand chip pontil scar, 12 1/4"H x 3 1/2"D, applied
sloping collar with ring, lightly cleaned to about perfect condition.
American, C. 1850, rare.
This spectacular Bryant's Stomach Bitters is one of the best
known examples of this desirable Western bottle. The bottle is
boldly embossed and blown in a clear shade of crude olive green
glass. Fresh to the market from an old-time collection, this
bottle was dug in the West many years ago and recently tumbled
to near perfection. The bottle retains a pleasing exterior luster
and it so far exceeds the appearance of the shipwreck examples
as to make any comparison a moot point. If you are looking to
buy the best, this is it!
