Little green bottle??

[MidnightAngel7788]

I found two little green bottles digging the other day...

they are both about the same size and shape of the cobalt vick's bottles.
they both have an I in a circle on the bottom and only one of them has MUSTEROLE CLEVELAND around the bottom...

Does anyone know what they are or anything else about them?

Musterole was a cream or jelly type remedy often used like Vicks, rub on the chest, cover with a warm cloth, for coughs and congestion Used instead of old fashioned mustard plasters. I know it was around in the 1940's. Some people also used it as a rub for muscle aches, kind of like BenGay. The bottles aren't particularly valuable, pretty common, but a fun addition to any collection of home remedies. Just google on Musterole, and you'll find more info.

The I in a circle on the bottom is the mark of The Owens Illinois Glass Co. The Owens Glass Co. & The Illinois Glass Co. merged in 1930 & were in business until the mid 1950's.
