Poison Bottle

[mallan]

Hi,
 Anyone know if these are of any value? Its about 3ltr in volume, clear glass with POISON embossed on both sides of the neck. Never seen one as big as this before.

These would likely be from an industrial/chemical firm !!  But it would be difficult to guess what it held !! I would suggest looking at the area where yiou found it and see what industry is located there !! Keep in mind that it would not have to be anything like arsenic !! Even cleaning liquids are poison !!  And yes,, there are many bottle collectors that specialize in poison bottles !! Let me get a website for you that might help !!

Wonder why the site closed down? I just used the antique bottle forum not to long ago. The forum seemed to be fine.
