    This is an older bottle as it is embossed as opposed to having a label. There is a patent date of 1906 on it but that doesn't mean it was made in 1906. Let us just say it is about 100 years old. It is a bit lighter than the usual cobalt blue bottle.
    In the last photo you can see the other items I bought on San Diego vacation not counting Mr Crusty and Wiley.

      Thank you very much Katherine. I went to shops in Carlsbad, Solano Beach, Ocean Beach, La Mesa, and Ramona. Feel free to give me tips on where the good shops are. I live in the San Bernardino Mountains.
