My Berkshire Stone Ginger Beer Collection

Foulston's Crescent Poison Bottles

 

Unfortunately so far I have only managed to collect two 2oz Foulston's Crescent Poisons:

click on images below to enlarge (you can then zoom in further using the wheel on your mouse):

Foulston's Crescent poison bottles in 2oz size are only recorded in different colour variations and no bottle mould variations.  Rare smaller versions sometimes just have the word "POISON" on the front.  There is also a 6oz version recorded with the wording "ROBIN'S EMBROCATION" on the front.  The 'normal' version colours can be shades of green or blue, and rarely in aqua and a one-off in rosewood (peachy amber).

 

It has a Patent no. of 461701 dated 29th July 1905.

 

The wording on all 3 bottles above is as follows:

 

Front:  NOT TO BE TAKEN

Back:  blank for label

Bottom:  461701 / RD. NO.

 

On larger versions the oz size is also recorded on the bottom.
