I saw one of these these cool bottles other day at an antique shop in Spirit Lake, IA. It was $40-$60 and had a large star on the bottom. it looked like a repro display bottle to me.
Its like a Twilight Zone episode, the guy buys a bottle of PLUTO, uses it as prescribed, and his life becomes 100% perfect. Until he runs out of Pluto, then he becomes constipated etc... the little picture of Satan in the middle of the label should be a small clue about this product/drug.
Here is a Pluto Spring Water bottle with the label intact. It is very light green and 8 oz. It cost 15 cents and was a Doctors sample. There is a date of 1907 on the side label.
I had a really cool silver colored metal container with red embossed lettering and a fancy lid at one time, this bottle looks older and cruder then the one I had. Mine looked like a cookie jar kind of. Cool bottle!
