I recently picked this up from the flea market for next to nothing, a shame there's no embossing but still an old and pretty bottle. Any ideas on what it may have held? Thanks for looking.---Joe
Are my eyes failing me, or is there a blank square slug plate on the front there? Either way that's a very nice bottle. Reminds me of the "U.S. HOSP. DEPT" bottles. Probably held some kind of chemicals. Cool find!

Does look a bit like a slugplate area there.
Hard to tell what it held. They were often used for wholesale druggist products. Many other things also.

There is definitely a very soft slug plate impression on the bottle. Real good eyes, Wheelah! --Joe
