I picked up this bottle cause I liked the color. Now I would like to know a little about it. Hope someone can help.Its dated 1938.On the front it has a big L and a small L overlayed in what looks like a clover. No other markings.

Hey Lonnie, Welcome to the forum. Your bottle held witch hazel or some type of liniment. They also came in cobalt (meds), clear (alcohol), and amber (oils) and three different sizes.

Welcome Lonnie.  Hey Cap, I see alot of these in amber and cobalt listed for sale as poison bottles (probably because of the ribs all over the bottles).  Are they considered  poison or meds?

Witch hazel and lintiment would deffinantly would not be good to your innereds it would probably take a bit more than what came in those bottles but the green and cobalts would be the ones that would have poisons in them. The ambers were usually cod liver or mineral oil. I sold many, many sets of those back in my flea market days.

Companies like Lilly (the bottle shown) Scuibb and others used these bottles for their home remedy line of products.

I really like your green bottle. WITCH HAZEL, THE GOOD OLD CURE, good for everything these days. Boy the price of that stuff has gone way up for a bottle in the drug store these days.
just like everything elese i guess.
