Tiny bottle #2 from Nova Scotia!

[Scotiaspinner]

Here is the second tiny bottle found on my farm (see previous post for the first one!)

This one is 4.5 inches tall, 1 5/8 inches wide, and only 5/8 inches deep. As you can see from the pics, the bottom (inside) of the bottle is narrow compared to the top. There is an interesting dimple on one side of the bottle that is quite deep! The seam on this bottle is diagonal, i.e. from front left to rear right corner. The shoulders are not quite symmetrical and the neck is a bit off vertical. I like that, it's rather quaint. No markings, but I have 3 bottles pretty much the same size and shape as this one, but they are not identical - the insides are different - which makes them look not perfectly molded to me.

I am fascinated by these little bottles - I have never been into bottles before but this is getting me hooked!

Is there anything embossed on the bottom of these bottles you found?

In the bottle digging world we call them "slicks" when there is no embossing at all on the bottle.
Its cool to see a new comer get into this hobby,I get flash backs of when I found my first "slick" in a farm dump 35 years ago I was in awe.
Good luck with that bottle bug,it is hard to get rid of []

Not on this one - some of them do have stuff on the bottoms, I'll have to post more pics tomorrow!

Most likely a medicine or perhaps extract of some such. Again, late 19th century / early 20th century

Panelled medicine/extract bottles like this one resemble those made by the Lamont Glass Company, Trention, N.S. This glass works usually marked the bases of its bottles with "L.G.Co.T."
