I just found out my new officemate collects antique bottles and I remembered one we found in our yard about 20 years ago. I am thinking of giving it to her as a little gift, but I thought I would do a little research on the internet first. I believe it to be a poison bottle. It is medium cobalt blue, 2-1/2 inches high, with a latticework or diamond-quilted pattern, The bottom is smooth and embossed with "WT & CO" with a "2" under that. I understand that it is probably made by "Whitehall-Tatum & Co", probably 1870-1935.... This is fascinating stuff! I just might have to keep the thing for myself and start a new hobbie! Can anyone tell me more about this little bottle? Thanks!
