Snagged this bottle this weekend...says The Jennings Co. on top and Perfumers on bottom...I know the CJ Jennings Co. made this in Grand Rapids, Michigan...I couldn't find anything on a Jennings Cathedral shaped bottle and not many pics of their bottles......bottom is embossed with 4OZ.. thanks for any help!

Hey ironmountain,

When I think of Cathedral bottles, I think of these forms:

k..i mis-identified it then...i just called it a cathedral because the sides are like the first pic you posted...angle then sharp angle straight down and the front/back are on a slight curve....aka I had no idea what I was talking about.

"ME-7 ( NARCOTIC BOTTLE ) 6 " tall, BIM, cathedral shape with three panels on each side. Aqua glass with a ring lip that looks close to being applied. Base is smooth. Embossed on front : " BURNETT'S COCAINE " Embossed on side panels : " BURNETT " " BOSTON " A very nice, clean bottle that is in super mint condition! SOLD"

Hey ironmountain,

That guy is talking through his hat. It's Burnett's "Cocoaine," a hair oil.

Hey ironmountain,

You eliminated your Burnett's reference. I did not see "that guy" refer to it as a cathedral, but he clearly doesn't know of which he speaks.

Take a picture of the entire bottle in natural light, if you would, please.

I'd recommend Bill Lindsey's great site to you.
