  15-06-2021 17:10 via antiquesandthearts.com
  
  The sale’s top lot at $13,500 was a Chalmer’s Catawba Wine Bitters bottle in aqua. “The embossing had a picture of Sutter’s Old Mill, where they discovered gold, and that made it a commemorative,” Wichmann said. “It is the only bottle that shows the mill or even mentions the gold rush. The more embossing the better, and this was highly embossed. And if it has a picture, it’s a lot better.”
