Rare Patent Model Poison Bottle Surfaces

A rare patent model poison bottle turned up on ebay this week.  It’s a small clear bottle with an embossed skull and crossbones.    Anna and Clara Moss of Collingswood, NJ received Design Patent # 46,407 on September 15, 1914.  I searched around quite a bit on Google Patents but could not find the patent record listed there.

With one day to go, 29 bids have run the price up over $1000.  Bidding may have a ways to go yet.
