Incredible graphics say it all for this highly unique, female medicine bottle, BonKora, dating from the 1930s - 1940s era. The bottle measures nearly 7.5 inches high and is complete with original contents. The condition of the bottle is very nice with only minor staining next to the letters in the word, BONKORA. Although the box is damaged, it displays well as it retains the image of the nude female- an interesting conversation piece! A bit of history: BONKORA was actually advertised as a weight loss treatment in print advertising, although this usage is not stated on the box. With sales in decline in the late 1930s, the BONKORA manufacturer attempted to make their product a bit more interesting by streamlining the original, bulkier silhouette in their advertising and adding a naked lady on the label. While a clever touch, the product’s popularity continued to wan – perhaps due to a combination of the economics of the Great Depression and the increased federal enforcement of earlier-legislated laws prohibiting unsubstantiated wild curative claims for any and all maladies.

C1920 Pharmacy MERCURY Jar Bottle Highly Graphic Label Catalogue: Vintage Arts: Instruments and Implements: Medical: Apothecary: Pre 1920 item# 1124405 (stock# J1089)

This empty, circa 1920's, chemist's, Mercurous Nitrate apothecary bottle sports a highly graphic label. It measures 5.75 inches high and shows evidence of use as well as a few unobtrusive manufacturing flaws. The label is 90% complete, also with some wear from use. HgNO3: Mercurous Nitrate is the earlier name for mercury nitrate. Mercury (I) nitrate is a chemical compound with the formula Hg2(NO3)2. It is used in the preparation of other mercury (I) compounds, and, like all other mercury compounds, it is toxic. Historically, Mercurous Nitrate was used to treat fur to make felt in a process called 'carroting'. Most interestingly, the phrase, 'mad as a hatter', is associated with psychological illness brought on by excessive exposure to mercury (II) nitrate. The use of Mercurous Nitrate in this practice continued in the United States until it was finally banned in December 1941, by The United States Public Health Service.
