insurance. We have enjoyed shipping our items all over the world and are happy to offer most of our items to international buyers. Yet insuring International parcels is very expensive so PLEASE NOTE; we do
NOT
insure International orders unless winning buyer specifically requests this and we are able to provide an insurance quote. 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 send payment acknowledgments and shipping confirmations. Your prompt payment will assure a very quick turn-around time.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
If our 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 especially important for foreign buyers to know as most of our foreign shipping charges are rough estimates

A fine looking antique bottle with a GREAT LOOKING PICTURE of the Trade - Mark owl perched on crescent moon. Bottle is FULLY embossed and the embossing is pretty down-home, 'the kind your Grandmother used ... '! We've seen these bottles with different labels on them, fruit extracts, food coloring, and then there are also the round Olive bottles that have this same Owl Trade Mark embossed on the base of them.
A couple of cases of these bottles showed up in the Pacific Northwest some 30 + years ago, in the Spokane Washington -- Coeur D'Alene Idaho area, and we were able to get several at that time. Now they have long been absorbed into collections and I am thinning out the last of mine.
This company started out in 1852 Chicago as the E. W. Gillett Co. and went on into the 1920's as the Sherer-Gillett Company, and after these I lose track of them. They also packaged different spices up in great looking old orange and white colored tins, with this same owl-on-the-crescent-moon trade mark. A nice looking bottle here and again, it is the kind your grandmother used,
check it out!
