This is my first post so it's kind of a trial and even though I'm 25 I suck working with computers. So I'm not sure how this is going to turn out and I'm only going to start by posting one of 4 bottles that I got while I was at an antique store.

This bottle has a green tint to it, its hard to tell because my lighting in my apartment sucks. On the front it has almost a "C" shape embossed on it but no other notable embossing. On each side, there is a bit of an indention of a long rectangle. I can tell its after 1900's, it looks like it was machine made. The bottle dimensions, body up to the shoulder: about 6 inches. Shoulder to neck: an inch and a quarter. Neck and up over an inch and a quarter. Side, width let's call it 4 inches. And its 2 and a little over a half from shoulder to shoulder. One notable feature is that on the bottom of the bottle it looks like there was a round piece of glass and they smashed it into this one almost, it's a neat imperfection. I'm assuming it was used as a medicine bottle and it was perhaps after the 1920s

Welcome to the site. Looks like a Dr. Kilmers with no embossing. Probably just had a paper label. Probably 1920's. LEON.
