I found 12 of these bottles in the attic of an old house we bought. UPJOHN is printed on top of the cap. The label says "Russian Mineral Oil" "tasteless" etc. Distributed by "T (something) Lyon Drug Company" "Roxboro, NC.

Any ideas?

I believe Upjohn is a pharmaceutical company still in business today.
Being a screw top it is probably an automatic bottle machine made bottle and not worth much as a collectable.
It looks to be from the 1940-1950 era approximately.

Thanks Woody. I'll just make them into lamps or paint them perhaps then.

I'll always be left wondering who used so much mineral oil??!! LOL!

Regards
