I've looked this bottle up and i've seen one's with the same shape that say Mason's Shoe Dressing. Mine say Mason's 3 FL OZ, and one even had the applicant brush still in it. I picked these up at a yard sale for $0.25 a piece. The yellowish honey amber one has a crude top, and its rue color only shows in the light. At firs they both looked olive green. So, how'd i do (are these worth anything)?



Crude top one:

You can't loose money when you've paid 25 cents! Probably came with a box like this:
