✅ SOLVED Medicine Bottle?

[Bob Rafferty]

I found this bottle. It is clear. It has seams on both sides of the bottle. The only marking on the bottle is what appears to be "11 oz" but it is clearly not 11 ounces. Too small.

Looks like there is a spot for a label on the front, but no label.

Thanks,
Bob

Hard to tell, but being the size it is , I would lean toward medicinal use.
What's the bottom look like??

Tim,

Here is a picture of the bottom of the bottle. Not any identifying marks.

Thanks,

Hello Bob,

Welcome to TNet & thanks for showing us your bottle. It looks to be a Turn of the Twentieth Century druggist bottle. I'm taking that "11," as a Roman Numeral 2.

Years ago I did a lot of bottle hunting, and these bottles were very common, they came in several different sizes. We called them prescription bottles. I think the local druggist had these bottles, and when a person came in to fill a prescription, the druggist filled the bottle with whatever, probably mostly alcohol, and put a label on it.

Common late 19th early 20th cent med bottle...no value...

Look for ones embossed with an apothecary or druggist name...those are the ones that could be worth your while...
