Description

The listing, old ruby mini bottle has ended.

it may look amber but my camera wouldnt pick up its true color. hold up to the light an you'll see that its in fact a ruby , wine-ish color. you'll also notice that the glass is full of "seeds" or bubbles that are IN the glass. the ribs that you see embossing the neck and body can only be best described as dragon feet complete with talons grabbing the bottle. it truely is awsome.

not sure 80's perhaps would have to look it up. I know they made repos in tawaiin. Most of the wheaton bottles I have are from the 70's. Some are older. I will keep watching your auctions, gonna bid later today. will fan you

Does it have any markings? I.e. "Ball and Claw Bitters / BALL AMD CLAW BITTERS (Taiwan)" (side) or "Wheaton" (on the base) If it is a reproduction, it is worth $15 and under. If it is original, it should be sold in a real auction. These are highly collectible, original or repro.

I didn't see that comment, It is a reproduction of a Wheaton (St. Lois) repro. by my best guess. Worth $5-12 depending on the color and seam, though most sell for a dollar. The green repros. are almost worthless, you got a good color. :D
