This bottle was dug in Northern Pa. It has calibrations going up each side, from 1 to 7 on one side, from 20 to 200 on the other. Uncertain what kind of measurement the numbers indicate.
Would like to know the age and value of this unique bottle.

Looks like a Pharmacy bottle from early 1900's. They would use paper labels and fill a prescription in it. I don't think value is a lot. Usually if they have a local pharmacy name embossed on it, that would increase value.

Have you asked the cat for information? I'll bet that cat nose has found out lots about the bottle![:D]

The 7 is for 7 ounces. The 200 is for cc s . We have dug the same bottle from a very small 1/2 ounce to a giant 32 ounce. Slimdigger
