    Shipping: FREE domestic shipping. We DO ship Internationally but we do NOT insure International orders unless buyer specifically requests this and we are able to provide an insurance estimate. If an international shipping charge is much more than the actual shipping cost, we will refund the excess so what YOU pay for shipping/insurance is very close to, if not exactly, the ACTUAL shipping costs! This is important for foreign buyers to know as most of our foreign shipping charges are estimates. We do not falsify information on the Customs Form, such as a price other than what the actual purchase price is, so please do not request us to do so. We ship several times a week and your prompt payment will hasten the turn-around time.

What a nice example of an antique narcotic-laced pharmaceutical bottle.  The label plainly reads "PHENOBARBITAL" across the front of it in super CLEAR wording.  This is an ORIGINAL paper label.  Only so  many antique bottles with NARCOTIC ingredient have survived the elements of time with the ORIGINAL FULL label intact.  This could be a unique one-of-kind bottle with the full labelcheck it out!
