Hey Mike, thanks for all the information you've posted on here, I read all of it. I was wondering, as I haven't been able to find much, if you've seen much info on Fairchilds Barb Wire Oil? The only thing Ive see is a blurry picture of the bottle and an add on Fairchilds building which dated after 1903... Most people think the bottle is 1890's but Im think a short run life in the early 1900's? Possibly effected by the food and drug act? Idk...
ReplyDeleteThanks, Matt in P-ville
So...is the assumption that in 1858 this product is pre-N. Mills affiliation, and packaged in the earliest rectangular bottles made in the East? Then in 1864 the N.Mills blue cylinder type was introduced, as I have the trademark information referring to the " new bottle with N.Mills stamped in the glass". Then in or around 1867 the western blown rectangular aqua version. That seems to be the correct lineage. Dale M.
