| When I photographed these two bottles at a 1994 auction, they were described as an Inca bottle (in marigold) and an Inca Goddess bottle (in amber), thought to have held some sort of South American liqueur. They brought just $20 and $15. Marigold bottles sold for $125 in 1997 and $225 in 2003. An amethyst bottle sold for $250 in 2003. In 1998, a bottle along with 6 mini glasses sold for $725. A 9 3/4-inch bottle in marigold with intact paper labels sold on eBay in 2005 for $175. In 2006, a marigold bottle sold at live auction for $175.
