Mercury Water?

[Florida-Hunter]

Hey I was just wondering....I found an old bottle dump by accident when I lived in another state.....I pulled a few out, and one of them that I remember said Mercury Water and a picture of a devil on one side, if I remember correctly. The bottle was about the size of a wine bottle and was clear. There was a few small medicine bottles that I kept as well. I don't know the age of the site but I would guess 1900 - 1930 maybe? No Cobalt glass. Just curious about what I had.

It sounds like a few bottles I found called "Pluto Water"......it had a devil on it also....but they were aqua in color

Hey that's it!! My memory escaped me, that it was Mercury water, but Pluto Water might be right. I think the bottle had a tinge of aqua in color too, must mostly clear. Unfortunately that bottle is no longer in my possession. Was it worth anything? I thought it was kind of a neat looking bottle either way.

I believe I still have several, I will post a pic and you can tell me if that is it....as far as value goes....they are fairly commom and may get a few bucks for them....depending on the person who wants it bad enough....like putting it on e-bay....one never knows how much they are willing to pay....my guess is from $5 to $25....I am gonna go find it now...and post a pic for ya

Actually , no that's not it.... It's similar but I think the devil was shaped different.... Also I don't think it had any sub writing under the title, Pluto Water. Maybe mine was an earlier or later style of bottle. I think the devil was on the bottom though.....I had this bottle around 1990 so it was quite a long time ago, hard for me to remember exactly the details....I remember looking in various bottle books, but I never could find much info. about it. Of course that was before the internet too. Unfortunately I no longer have that bottle anymore. It disappeared about twelve years ago.
