Hi everyone, hope the summer has been good to you.
I have this 3" tall x 1-1/4" round clear BIM bottle here, with a thin tooled "patent med" type top, but the mouth is maybe 3/4" wide...
It is Embossed in a circle as follows:
Carl L. Jensen
Crystal Pepsin
Philadelphia
And in the center is a "trade mark" symbol that absolutely stumped my sorry a$$ for years now until I decided I was going to figure it out...and by golly, I did a few days ago!
It has a pig's head with a snake in it's mouth as the trade mark! You can see the eye of the pig, the mouth, the nose, the snake's body, and the tongue of the snake quite clearly if you know what you're looking for.
Nothing on the base..
Does this ring a bell for anyone?
