Those ones aren't, but there is a poison that is very similar to them. The poisons like that have thicker ribs and are embossed FOR EXTERNAL USE ONLY. I believe the ones with the narrow ribs like that were an extract bottle of some kind. I have seen them with cork and screw tops, the poisons also come both ways so they likely date around the same era. ~Jim
