Put in what I thought was a low bid but ended up winning this from botlmole down San Diego way.
TOC item, they come up every now and then on the 'bay and I didn't have an example until now.

Looks like an unusual lip treatment on that bottle.. interesting! ... Hope it didn't set you back too bad!

A bit over $20 with postage, and by gum it came with some original dirt inside which is now being soaked in soap and water.
I tried google-ing "Alkyloidux" as embossed on the bottle and only came up with results from previous bottle auctions.

Alkaloids are found in cactus such as the well-known peyote and related species, so goodness knows what it was supposed to cure. Bet whoever took some forgot all about what ailed them.

Good for you! Some times the locals are only of value to those who appreciate them. Junk to the rest. Preserve you're local history!!!!
