    OK i found this with a bunch of other bottles dated around 1910.. i have no idea what it was. Masur medicine or alcohol? This was a dry county during the prohibition tho. Not sure when those dates started tho. Kinda neat looks to have a tint of carnival glass look on it. Says one pint on the front bottom. And on the top says trade mark W. On the back it says federal law forbids sale or reuse of this bottle. Its kinda fancy with design down each side arms around the front.

      In some form, the Federal Law Prohibits Sale or Reuse of this Bottle is found on alcohol bottles dating from the end of Prohibition in the early 1930s to about 1962, albeit still put on some bottles even after that.
      I do not recognise a maker's mark, so I do not know if there is a date-code.
