NUTT'S Bottle

[Ye Olde Prospector]

There was a picture of a bottle posted a while back the just said NUTTS on the front and we were trying to find more info on it. Came across this one on one of my shelves I was rearranging today. Knew I had a NUTT"S bottle somewhere. Anyone familiar with this one? It's 5 1/4 in aqua embossed "NUTT"S COUGH SYRUP/ RAYMOND MEDICINE CO/ RAYMOND,N.H." Think this might be a much earlier version of the NUTTS bottle that was posted. If someone can find that earlier post let me know where it is. Thanks.

Hi Cliff, I recall that post but find nothing in Fikes on NUTTS Or Raymond NH or the Medicine Co. So I would bet that all were local.
I do find only

Heres a picture of a open pontil nutt's bottle I sold a few years ago on ebay for $237.00. Possible that your bottle maybe same maker at a later time period. A month before I sold mine I saw a open pontil nutt's bottle go for $400.00 plus. Thats what gave me the idea to sell mine which I kinda regret as it was a awesome bottle.

Hi Dave and Justglass,

Well looks like some of the pieces of the puzzle may fit. Although seems like Fikes would have something about NUTT'S bottles if it was sold for that many years ie. pontil thru poss. early 1900's. I picked up the one I have from a NH digger. Has a tiny hole in a corner so got it cheap. Thought it was a neat bottle, I like odd bottles and keep them even if damaged til I can find a better one. Always fun learning about old bottles. Keep on huntin.

HI guys, I know this is an old post, but I've got diggers withdrawal with the frozen ground and all ... and am scrolling through every bottle diggers site on the web tonight, and every night.
Anyways, I've dug a couple of "Nutts " bottles, they were your basic extract/medicine type, but they were from Newmarket NH, which is about 20 miles from Raymond. I guess Dr. Nutt moved or possibly a brother or son was in the business as well. I've never seen either of these Nutts bottles.
Speaking of nuts, is it spring yet? Is the ground thawed? Wayne, I"m ready to jump into the water with you now !

Anyway, I hope that by the time I get my boat back in the water it'll be spring, the flowers blooming, the birds chirping, the water warming and my suit fitting trim ad slim??? oh well, three out of four ain't bad!![&:]
