I got a bottle that is about 9" tall and is about 2"-2.5" in dia up into the shoulder then has about a 1" neck and then a crude tappered applied lip. The seams stop under the lip. Lots of air bubbles. The bottom is slightly rounded and has a big circle and in the circle are three big letters inside of each other...............ya know what i mean? They look fancy, they are from biggest to smallest: T K B. On the side of the bottle there is a picture of a shield and a hand in the middle of it. Under that is embossed: TRADE MARK. On the very bottom of the side it is embossed: H. HALL

The bottle standing on an even surface sits uneaven. Anybody know the era of the bottle and what it was used for? I really dont care how much its worth allthough it would be nice to know. I dont collect my bottles because there worth money, I collect because its a hobby...........................................sorry for no picture i need to figure out how to use my darn digital camera!
