These appear to be mercurochrome or iodine bottles with their applicators. They are fairly new. There was a time when you could easily buy these preparations, but I think the government made them less available. I have found them in WallyWorld, imported from Mexico, in the same containers.
Ouch! I can almost feel the sting all over again.[] My mother used to put iodine on every cut we got, and yes, as Mike pointed out, it came out of bottles like those.[] Hey Mike, we're dating ourselves again![8D]
Hi Dave
Here's some of the bottles i've been finding in Toronto.
Sorry about the quality of the pics, the good camera is not working and
the awful camera is living up to its name.
Cheers
Robin
