favorite little bottle

[bottlechaser62]

Does anyone have one of these peptenzyme bottles in this shape? I have seen them in the rectangular med type. This is one my favorite little bottles. Ground top and crude embossing.

Why yes Barbara..........exactly like that! Ask and yee shall receive...lol. Do you see many of these around? I havnt see them at the shows.

Gosh...since most of my bottles are common I figured EVERBODY had this one!
I've never noticed any at shows either.

Most of mine are common too but there are a few that I have hung on to over the past 30 yrs due to shape, color etc. I guess if 12 more people post the same bottle, then we'll know its just another cool small bottle.
Thanks for sharing.

Excellent little bottle. Gotta love that shape. Common yes but in a very uncommon shape. And just a great piece of glass. Gotta love those unique pieces. Congrats on a nice little bottle. Where do you display it?

 

[bottlechaser62]

Thanks madpaddla..............I have mine displayed in a curio on bottom shelf lying flat with other small odd non categorized bottles. I need to have a better way to display it. I have 3 shelves of ink bottles and then I have this shelf of misfits- Ha! the peptinzyme being one of them.

Also looks like the same mold that they used for the Bayer aspirin bottles.

One of my digging partners dug that same bottle with the cap intact. I've got a pic of it somewhere, I'll post it when I can find it.
