Hey All. I dug up this beautiful bottle today and would like any information you may have about it. It is square, flat and unmarked on one side and concave on the other three. Ribbed. Two sides are embossed with "THE CHAMPION COMPANY, SPRINGFEILD OHIO, LEASIDE ONTARIO". The other is 'reverse graduated', 0 to 16oz and embossed with "COMPLIES WITH ALL STATE LAWS". It is 7 1/2" tall. The bottom is marked with a 'ships anchor' logo and "made in U.S.A" "464-A". I'm guessing some kind of poison. It is in perfect condition in spite of the fact that it has spent 55 years burried. It cleaned up soooo nicely! Here are a couple of pics. the first is in the dump as I dug it up. Thanks
