I have just stumbled across your website and I am very interested in any items you have from Broemmel's Pharmacy in San Francisco. I
worked there when I was a student many years ago, and actually helped the owners close the pharmacy. Very sad day, but really lovely
memories.
Thank you, Joann Averill

Hi Don,
Great job!
I was searching for "Webster & Shown" while trying to identify a token and I hit your site. Thanks for making the informations available and
allowing Google to index the information. Richard Greever tokencatalog.com
You are searching for where K.B. Skiles Co. was located. I found Kent B. Skiles in Bluffton, Indiana in the 1920 census as a wholesale & retail
tobacco merchant. He also appears in the 1910 and 1930 census in Bluffton, with different occupations There doesn't seem to be any other K. B.
Skiles which would match. Also on tobaccodocuments.org, I found - KENT B. SKILES Skiles Company, Inc. Bluffton Hope this is useful,

Afternoon,
As a kid I remember lugging cases of Helen Elliott Candy hammers from the back stock room to the from of the store when the Sales Girls
would pack coal candy. I worked there on and off for 15 years. My Mother was the President of Helen Elliott Candy for about 30 years. It brought
back a lot of memories to see your hammer. Chances are I carried it at one point in time.
Best,
Mike

Hello,
First of all, what an amazing website!!
A Google search found your Master Index entry for Webb & Sanders Druggist, Forrest City, Ark., but I couldn't find a picture or
whether it was for sale. Could you let me know, and also send me a picture, whether for sale or not? I collect bottles embossed with
Sander or Sanders (family name). Thanks very much.
Sincerely, Alan Coy 9/21/07
Don, what an amazing web site! I can tell you are truly dedicated and have devoted many hours to research. I don't think I have
any that you don't have listed. Although, I might be able to provide you with some pictures of a few you have listed. I personally try
to collect all dose cups with slug plates from the extreme Northwest Missouri area(mainly from smaller sized towns). Do you have
plans to ever publish a book on these glasses?

Thank you for your website and the information you provide about different dose cups. I recently found the Mendenhall's Chill and
Fever Tonic dose cup in a relatives contents and intend to keep it but would love to know the value. Would it be too much to ask for
the approximate value of this neat item? Thank you so much for your help. Sincerely,

Hello Donald, Your site is fantastic, It is about time there is a dose cup site that is worthy of filing into the favourites to use as a
reference guide for when i find dose cups on my travels. I have found NZ ones and Aussie ones around, but never any American
ones over here. Some can have outstanding pictorials on them, Some are even embossed better than the Medicine bottles found
from the same company ! Thanks for showing me your new site,
regards,

I introduced your website in our staff meeting this morning and the Education dept and Library are interested in examining it as a
model for interactive object-oriented history, so you will see some activity from nyhistory.org this week!

I was searching the net for "dose glass" and happened across your site. Very informative info on dose glasses. I collect San
Francisco Bay Area dose glasses and wonder if you happen to have any spares for sale that aren't in your 50 State collection? I live
near San Jose, California.

Chuck 3/1/06 Kentucky
nice job.
Patricia 2/22/06 Illinois
really nice stuff !!! I've had an antique shop since 1992 and I've seen more great stuff here than I see all year! A very nice web site
with such a neat assortment of items. At one time I had Max and Moritz dolls, they were a neat pair, your site is impressive and I
have bookmarked it for future reference.

Don, We think the lay out of your site is so well thought out not only do you have information but pictures to get an Idea of what
you have and what you are looking for. We will be back again many times.
Bernadette 2/9/06 Illinois
Hi, Don! Well, I received the banks yesterday, probably before my check cleared. Thanks so much. They are just as described and
my bank collector friend will love them.
Bernadette 2/9/06 Illinois
Don - Another excellent and informative source. Thank you! I also treasure your book on German and Japanese nip bottles
absolutely the very best and diligent work on your part. I'm glad I found you!
Ron Mui 2/07/06 Washington

Hi Don, Great Job on the website! I am impressed.
Bill 2/07/06 Illinois
Thanks Don for sending your link, which it looks like you not only did a nice job of setting it up, but must have also been a lot of
work to set it up so nice. I did look through it, which I also have it saved and will also look through more, in time. Have A Nice Day.

Donald: Hi. I was away skiing for a few days and just returned last night. We do a couple days per week of ski instruction at Maine
Handicapped Skiing, in Newry, Maine (Sunday River Ski Resort). It is great fun and an incredibly worthwhile activity for all the
participants...and...totally free to
them!! Anyway, your site is really great. I love all the pictures and I enjoyed seeing the things you now collect. Take care and
congrats.

I am a compiler of data on dose cups and related subjects, I am trying to put all the pieces of this gigantic puzzle together
one piece at a time. Since I started this project in 2006 I now have guides to pricing and scarcity and dose cup identities, its a
very time consuming task but I thought it was about time for someone to make sense out of all this. I now have listings of close
to 4,000 different dose cups but there are many hundreds yet to gather data on, I call on bottle collectors and other dose cup
collectors to share there dose cup data with me for research purposes, it would make the job much easier.
