Deluca 3-Sided

[SMJB]

Not sure what the contents were. Strange thing is, the embossing is a mirror image. I tried to look through the reverse to read it, but the shape made it impossible. Finally just held it up to a mirror:

DELUCA
Reg. Pat.
2 OZ.

Any info appreciated. Can't find anything on the company.

Add: Sorry, I meant to put this is the Digging Forum.

Maybe with liquid contents it would have refracted differently and you could read from the other panels? Only bottle like that i know is pinch whisky

That's a strange one. Reminds me of some of the shoe polish bottles or even a little olive oil bottle. Is there any marking on the base?

 

[SMJB]

Yes, the base has the "DELUCA" logo like the main one, with the oversized "D." Sorry 'bout that base pic. It had a disgusting yellow liquid in it, and rusted top that came off with a little elbow grease. The 2oz quantity is curious. The number "2" looks very 19th century, which is too early for this bottle, I would think.

I'll try to take a pic from the reverse. Like Rickmarbles said, with liquid it might be legible.

Early 1900s?

1930's-1940's likely.

I think these three sided bottles contained Haig whiskey or brandy and usually had paper lables
