Marx Smoke Fluid Bottle

That is an authentic Marx Liquid Smoke bottle from the 1950s.  I have several of them which are still filled with Marx Smoke fluid.  Marx smoke fluid  possessed a unique fragrance.  Many did not like it but quite frankly I did and still do.

Thank you so much. If you can see in the picture, there is still some fluid in the bottle. Looks like one for a display shelf as I can't bring myself to throwing it away. My father left me multiple boxes of train stuff which should prove to be adventure. Next, a big box with Ives written on it. Thanks again.

We need pictures from that box…🤗

Yes sir, might be a bit of a delay as I'm recovering from recent double bypass surgery. Moving slow. 🙂

Unfortunately, the Ives box was a bust. Sorry for the hype. Nothing in it Ives related, just some miscellaneous items. A car with a label that says Dorfan, a neat transformer, and some track with a fourth small rail I've never seen before. Still sorting through the rest, still some boxes to go.

The 4 rail track is American Flyer, used to activate their whistle in tenders and some other cars.  It has a fiber board base that warps when it gets moist.  It was included in some sets like the Hiawatha and the Burlington Zephyr when the whistle was in their tender or baggage car.  I think it was available in the late '30s and then for one year it was cataloged for separate sale with 3 rails. Yours looks to be in pretty great condition.

Thank you very much Mr. Turinetti. I believe they cam out of a set as well. They were also with some empty passenger car boxes. I'll never use so I have to find a home for them. Just can't bring myself to throwing these things away.
