You aqua bottle is very similar in shape to the Duck Bottle, can't quite make out what it says. I didn't realize how round the picture of the Try it Bottle appeared It is actually very thin. Enclosed is another picture taken in profile.I is only about 4 1/2 inches tall.View attachment 231598
Would you please post a photo of the very bottom of this bottle?

The one looks like a fire grenade. Really nice bottles! I get in trouble here, trying to show the funniest stuff written on my bottles, but those weird sayings are the most fun part of collecting, to me. Love it! One of my favorites:

WOULD HAVE BEEN EVEN BETTER IF IT SAID," DIRECTIONS IN THE BOTTLE" MAYBE THERE IS ONE OUT THERE THAT SAYS JUST THAT!!!

I have a milk glass figural clock nip. I am afraid the lettering on the back would not show, so no picture, but the reverse says "Merry Christmas / Happy New Century / and many of Them"

I love seeing all these bottles with unique wording. I have a bottle with initials that now sound risque, but at the time it was made, the initials simply stood for sarsaparilla & mineral water. Made approximately between 1917-1925 by Buck Glass in Baltimore.
