NEED HELP to ID

[WAHIAWA DIGGER]

Found this last night digging 4' deep. Bottles from around 1910 have been coming up in the same area. Any Ideas? Thanks! Nate

I believe that's a Colgate and Co. bottle.. not sure what it held, maybe soap or perfume or something..

I would say cologne. I have dug a half dozen or so of them. I have one right now with the original dobber through the cork stopper. Swiz

Thanks Cyberdigger & Swiz! Googled "colgate company perfumes" and got lots more info. Aloha! Nate

No prob man. If you're interested I'll send you the original stopper that I have. I'm bound to dig a few more in the coming years. Swiz

Thanks Swiz for the offer but I'll pass... Just to save space, I take the non-Local or Hawaii bottles I don't need to a friend that owns an antique shop and maybe work up to a trade. How old is this bottle? This is a nice bottle, again thanks for the offer... Aloha from Hawaii!

I always thought these were hand lotion bottles maybe
