Antique Bottle History
Cowan & Flint's Ague King-
Here is a great Western medicine! This bottle was dug several years ago, and was initially a mystery. Although it appeared western made, and the druggists were known in Marysville, it had never been seen before. This
bottle is an impressive large 9" tall crudely made bottle with a huge applied top.After it was dug, the research really began. After a lot of "digging", the pictured ad surfaced. As you can see the "Ague King" was
shown as the only reliable remedy ever offered to the public. This is an early bottle being sold in 1866, and is the only example of this medicine ever to surface. Talk about rare!
