Red ball and claw bitters bottle question
I have an interesting ball and claw bottle. I am wondering how old this might be and if it is worth anything? The pictures will show visible seams. The item is ruby red. The markings on both sides of bottle say "ball and claw bitters". I cannot read the markings on the bottom. Any help is appreciated, thank you!

Welcome to the forum. The marking on the base is "WHEATON NJ" - Wheaton Industries produced reproduction and fanciful re-creations of 19th century bottles in the later 29th century.
This particular bottle is not technically a reproduction since it is not a copy of an existing 19th century bitters bottle.
Wheaton bottles are collectible and regularly trade on ebay.
