i saw a bottle very similar to that with a lable. the only thing i remember was it said something about jamaica on the lable. i can remember now. i liked the bottle but i thought they wanted way to much money for it.

Yes those small flask shaped bottles often were Jamaica Ginger and usually had a blank area for a paper label. The one shown is often referred to as a sunflower pattern. Here is a photo of a pale green one I dug a while ago.

Here is another fancy one I dug. Colburn was a spice company from 1870's to early 1900's so would guess this also was Jamaica Ginger.
