Neat stuff!

I have a Searby's Florida Water, but have not seen the tablet jar.

Cooool.

Well, for sure everybody and his brother have a Hall's Sarsaparilla J.R. Gates & Co. Proprietors, S.F., this one's claim to fame
are the hard-to-see olive streaks running through the shoulder/neck area on this specimen.

An almost fire aqua example of Dr. Murray's Magic Oil S.F. -- C.A.L., this came from an oldtime Santa Clara collection sold off about 20 years ago.
Neatly applied top, only slightly crude.
