These are some bottles I've accumulated over the years...most are quite small and appealed to me on some unknown level. Several were dug bottles...

This is a Fat Baby I dug...BIM

Hey Whiskey -
I was going to ask you about the Oxien bottle before you edited it. I really like the Fat Baby and amber cylinder. They are all so damn cute though.

Do you think the glass spoon was used for snuff (or other)? Send it to the lab.

The Oxien bottle with the minotaur is from Augusta, Maine circa 1890.

KAT..glad ya liked my weird bottles...I may have some more....gonna look around a bit and see what else I can take pics of.

I dug #1, 2 ,& the last one..all in a local patent medicine company dumping area circa 1900-16...dunno if they were practicing Hare Krishnas or not...and Barnum ain't never been here...HA!

MEECH...yeah, I edited the post before ya caught me...
The Sultan Drug Co bottle is also a small one. May post a pic later.

Yep, it is a tiny spoon with a small bowl...just enough for a snort perhaps.
Maybe part of a child's play set?

Mr. Whiskeyman!...I dug an identical bottle to your tiny amber cylinder , around 20 years ago, and have marveled many times over what it could've held....it sit's w/ some of my other small oddities and bottles ....oh, how I miss the old gates hollow dump... (I suspect it may have held contents to be injected?.. but I'm open for suggestions too...
