1900s Embalming Fluid Bottle Eureka Fluid Works of San Francisco, California
The product is an antique late 1800s to early 1900’s embalming fluid bottle from Eureka Fluid Works of San Francisco, California. It provides a historical glimpse into the methods of preservation used during that time period and serves as a unique collector’s item for those interested in antiques and science & medicine artifacts. The markings on the bottle provide several historical clues. The vertical graduated markings (numbered 1 through 16) were used by embalmers to measure the precise amount of fluid needed for a procedure. Company History: While the Eureka Chemical Company (which still produces “Fluid Film” today) dates its origins to the early 1940s, this specific “Eureka Fluid Works” branding and bottle style typically date from the late 1800s to the early 1900s. Local Lore: During the “last wet” New Year’s Eve before Prohibition started in 1920, some San Francisco saloon owners reportedly went so far as to pass off embalming fluid as whiskey to desperate patrons. This bottle is extremely rare. Not many out there.
