Pineoleum Physicians and an "AMC" badge - 3/10/2006 8:51:19 PM    Yooper14 Posts: 313 Joined: 4/25/2005 From: Ohio Status: offline Hello all, Had a little bit of digging time. Only found one embossed bottle. A little sample bottle. The bottle is embossed on two sides with "Pineoleum" and on the other two with "Physicians" and then "trial." Obviously it's a little sample size. There is a rubber cork in it with a little glass dropper. I've found out that Pineoleum was a cure for "minor colds." I've not seen any examples of this little bottle though. Are these sampler's less common or pretty frequent? Also, the bottle is interesting because it has it's bottom mold mark along the outside edge, not on the bottom. I also found a heavy duty brass shield badge. It has the letters AMC fancifully done on it. I though maybe it was from an AMC car, but my dump predates this time period by quite a bit, I think....any ideas what it may mean?

RE: Pineoleum Physicians and an "AMC" badge - 3/10/2006 8:58:37 PM    Yooper14 Posts: 313 Joined: 4/25/2005 From: Ohio Status: offline This is my meager haul for the day. A oddly shaped bottle - maybe a sauce? A salt shaker, which I like to keep. Some doll legs. A few little samplers or perfumes, and a lipstick. This is a heavier-duty lipstick than I usually find. The color is "Dark Masturtium," if I'm reading it correctly. There's some real fine print on the brass base I haven't made out yet. Guess there's a buckle in there too. Not much else to speak of today.....

Maybe the AMC on the badge is for The American Medical Council. Health inspectors still wear badges in some states. _____________________________ Warren Diggin down in Dixie, USA Work is for people who don't dig bottles President, Panhandle Cruisers http://www.panhandlecruisers.org/ (in reply to Yooper14) Post #: 6
