Found these bottles in one of our digging site in Cajidiocan, Sibuyan island, Romblon. Anybody knows the significance of the bottles or their monetary value, if there is any. Thanks for the information anybody can provide.

Go Up Go Down

On July 18, 1929, the Osaka Bazar imported from Japan ten (10) cases, Nos. 2154 to 2163, each containing 60 dozen bottles of "Bonton" ink, purchased from Ogura & Co., which arrived in Manila on the S. S. President McKinley, Exhibits M and O. From said shipment, a sample bottle, Exhibit N, with the trademark "Bonton" and the figure of the bird "Kiukwan", was kept in the customhouse.

If you can trace them back to this shipment they may have some value. Otherwise an U S collector put a value of 3-20 dollars on them.
