While I don't normally pick up screw-top bottles (too new), I found this one to be curious. It was still wrapped in most (a few pieces of the body missing, and all of the top portion) of its original decorative wrapper, which left me wondering on the pamphlete and label (turns out to also be embossed).
Going off the pamphlete, which is incredibly poor shape for having been protected, this particular liniment dates to the mid 1930s, albeit the car on the pamphlete looks 1920s to me.
The label fell off immediately.
The paper on this-- wrapper, pamphlete, and label-- shouldn't have survived, even having been stored for years. They were of low quality. But, it lived, so I'll preserve them. They won't stay in my collection long, but they're interesting.
very interesting survivors SpiritBear super wee find good on you !!!!
Thank you, Malkey. Today and tomorrow (your time, as I know it's about 1 AM there) I will post nicer labeled and boxed bottles.
Work on Chemical burns ? ;p
I just looked at my pointer finger, having again done the same thing today. It has a small crack. LOL. Everythingelse is dry and wrinkled-- withered flesh, anyone?
