A Few Bottles!

I have several boxes of bottles that I've put into storage, and since I'm home alone all weekend I thought I'd take them out and do some identification.



Absorbine Junior Bottle, an antiseptic.
Dug up in a town dumpsite, 1920's most likely.

Cherry Bottle
This bottle, although unembossed, is still beautiful. I identified it in a 1930's Owens Illinois catalogue

Here's a picture of how it would have looked with the cherries inside!


Drene Shampoo Bottle
Dug up at a family farm dumpsite, most likely 1930's. Drene Shampoo was introduced by Proctor and Gamble in the early 30's.

Lysol Bottle
Although it's a very common bottle, I always appreciate the beauty of common bottles no matter how often I dig them up. Lysol, if you didn't know, was a disinfectant, and according to some ads was actually marketed as a feminine hygiene product! 1920's-1930's.

Odorono Deodorant Swab!
I dug up this very interesting relic that belonged to a deodorant bottle. Since I don't have the bottle, it's difficult to date. It's so fascinating thinking about how someone used this many years ago!
