also i cant figure this one out. It was obviously double paned glass, and the outer pane has been broken off....A weird thing is that the glass is VERY thin, like that of a lightbulb. But the lip of the bottle is rounded and looks like it would be safe to drink out of....it also looks like there was gold paint between the 2 panes....i have no clue

Your last pic looks like the early innards of a thermos bottle...

Anacin is similar to aspirin...bottle is from the 40's, 50's...

Carbona is common...can't recall what it actually was/is.

The little cast iron race car looks like your best find...peeps do collect & "restore" these when possible.

Carbona is cleaning fluid, kind of a spot remover. Anacin is a combo of generic tylenol and an antihistimine (diphenhydramine), still around as a pain reliever.
