Hey Jen,

Welcome back. There was a chain of Owl Drug stores.

LA 1941.

I'd really like to see some better pictures of the little blue guy next to the screw top druggist. Blue is good.

...and do it say "Owl Drug," with the Maryland Glass mark?

It looks like some kinda promotional tschotske, perhaps. Drip pointy lamp top is a bit of a hoot, don'tcha think. [8D] Especially for a poison.

It's crying out for natural light, and no flash...

Well too, young to remember to love of Natty Boh, other then the odd ACL bottle I find, It does not say The Owl Drug Co. that idea was given to me by a local collector. Then I bought the other bottle for a sadly low price due to the first. I stopped digging a year ago but keep finding bottles I have thousands and so here I am chasing an "OWL" Jen

If the figural has Owl Drug Company on it, I would say a promotional piece...vase.
The other, does it say Owl Drug on it as well? Owl Drug produced many things and had many differnt bottles made for them, but the only one's that were poisons actually said POISON down one side and are triangular in shape. And as far as I know, they did not make any screw tops of that bottle.
