Small bottle - 11/13/2003 6:28:10 AM    bryna123   Posts: 4 Joined: 10/26/2003 Status: offline Hi all. Here's a little bottle, about 4" high, with a slightly distorted shape and the marks 2.1/2 on the bottom. It has a green tinge of colour to it. Any ideas? Thanks.

I've never seen a Mellin's bottle in that shape but it may very well be one too. (in reply to bryna123) Post #: 4

Status: offline I always thought they were an early cream bottle however one day we dug one with a label on it and it was a boot polish from London England. I don't know if they all contained polish or they may be a generic bottle.
