    German Belladonna extract bottle, hand-lettered, 19th century. Height is 3.75 inches. I like the color of the glass, and the lettering is well done. Purchased from the estate of a pharmacist in Los Angeles. Has anyone seen a similar bottle?

      It's a serious poison that I believe women put drops in their eyes to dilate them. I still don't like the idea of women playing with poisons !
