What's the difference between second quality vaseline and normal vaseline? Here's a pic of some vaseline bottles that were dug from the same dump.

never heard of second quality vaseline but they are very nice bottles. maybe some copycat company was trying to steal some of vaseline's market.

Like most other diggers I've seen my share of clear, amber, and SCA chesebrough's but never seen one of those either. The guy that invented that stuff used to eat a spoonfull every day.

Hi Jamus. I just found one just like the one in the middle with most of the label still on the back under a house we were working on. Its kind of greasy so I hope I can clean it up without removing the label. That amethyst one on the right is pretty. Did it turn that way after you bought it? I like the little embossed bottles, screw top or not.

No, it was already that color when I dug it up. Thanks for the reply! I'd love to see some pics of the one you found with the lable still on it. You can post it on this thread if you want.

The second quality vaseline was for your hair and dry patches on your dog or to mix with sulfer so the cut on your horse of mule would heal without a scar and the hair would grow back.

Regular vaseline was for your chapped lips, dryskin and other things that are best not mentioned here.
