what are it's measurements? what was the age of the stuff where you dug it" it looks like an iodine or mecuracrome (spelling?) dropper like the ones used when i was a kid. they were small bottles

I found one just like it yesterday, in a dump dated between 1930's and 1950's i also found an iodine bottle, iodine only had a clear glass tube made into the cap for an applicator this one has a dropper. i would say it was probably ear drops.
but thats just my uneducated opinion.

Hey Andy4707, I think it's most likely a Nose Drops Bottle [X(]! I can see that the dose tube has some graduation markings on it. These were in use when I was a kid in the 1960s. I don't think it is too old because the cap and rubber squeeze bulb have not rotted away totally.
