§ 4729.33.
No person shall dispense or sell completely denatured alcohol or wood alcohol in packages
containing less than five wine gallons without having affixed thereto a label on which
is printed or stenciled in plain, legible, red letters of equal prominence on a white
background the words, “Completely Denatured Alcohol” or “Wood Alcohol,” as the case
may be, and in addition on the same label in red ink, under the skull and crossbones
symbol, the word “POISON” together with the following statement: “Completely denatured
alcohol, or wood alcohol is a violent poison. It cannot be applied externally to human or animal tissue without serious injurious
results. It cannot be taken internally without inducing blindness and general physical decay
ultimately resulting in death,” and without having stamped, stenciled, or printed
upon such label the name and address of the seller, the degree of proof, and the formula
number thereof. Neither the word “pure” nor the single word “alcohol” alone shall appear on any
label of completely denatured alcohol or wood alcohol.
