Aqua colored flask - Any information?

There are bubbles in the top of the glass which suggested to me this was hand made. Also, the bottom has a mold # 159 printed on the bottom.

Thanks!

Looks like a 1900 era patent medicine or prescription bottle.. woulda had a paper label of course..

Alright thanks! I found it in a lot with 1800's bottles but this was the only one I was unable to identify

Hey FlaskMan,

Welcome to the world of What is it?

Not a flask, but an Oval Druggist. I've seen them called Philadelphia, or Penn Ovals.
