I was wondering if this is a poison bottle & how much it may be worth. The texture is only on three sides of the bottle.

It looks like one.  How tall is it and is there any embossing on it?

There's no writing on it, but it is 5 inches tall.

I think it is a poison.  I am no expert though.

Those bottles came in 4 sizes and in amber, cobalt, green, and clear. They held different liquids which were listed on the label. I have seen the clear ones with alcohol labels, the green ones with witch hazel, the cobalt ones with milk of magnesia and the amber ones with cod liver oil. Like I said I have seen the labels mention on the colors I mentioned but that does not mean they were not used for other things also.
