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.
An ultra RARE bottle with the SANTA CRUZ embossing. You rarely find hand blown quart size glass pharmacy bottles whole and if you do, only about 1 out of 100 are embossed. Few of them were made to begin with even fewer were ever embossed with a pharmacist's name on it, especially from a small town like Santa Cruz. Of the ones that were made not many have survived the elements of time as they were so susceptible to breakage in this giant size. Something this large and fragile rarely made it through life without breakage and even if they weren't broken before or while being disposed of, there was the perils of kids searching out the old dumps looking for something of this magnitude to line up as a rock-throwing target! I know; I was one of them. Even the large chain drug stores in the cities rarely paid to have embossed bottles in the quart size as they were very expensive, it took a lot of effort to create a functional glass vessel this large, and there wasn't a lot of pharmaceutical prescription products that required a bottle this large. So most of the old time pharmacies did not bear the expense to have the personal name of the drug store embossed on it. To find one of these bottles that is embossed, ESPECIALLY from a small rural community like SANTA CRUZ was when this bottle was produced, is quite a rare find, check it out!
