Hi Gregg, The Edison's is an interesting, yet common bottle. It was used by the railroads for battery operated signal lights, 1908-60. Enter Edison battery oil in the search area of the forums home page and you'll find some posts. The Omega bottle, is Omega Chemical Co. of NY 1890 - 1983. It was supposed to help with painful joints etc. I did a quick search and found a few places offering it for sale - $14.95 Hope this helps.
