Title: Small (h: 7cm) pressed bottle brown square "ROBERTS"
Post by: px on May 05, 2011, 08:38:08 PM

Hi, if anyone in the world would know I trust he/she reads this forum? Anyone?  ::)

This tiny bottle was found on a yard where the house was built in the 1920's. I doubt this would be that old but it would be nice to know what kind of "essence" has been sold in a bottle like this and when. With the "pouring beak" and all.

Looks like an iodine Bottle to me, or some sort of chemists (drug store) bottle, as I guess.  I found that there were bottles made by the *Robert Bros*  See Here (http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:TYnm8oVG6BwJ:www.bottlebooks.com/questions/april%25202001/april_2001_questions_6.htm+glass+brown+bottle+by+Roberts&cd=10&hl=en&ct=clnk&gl=ca&source=www.google.ca)

Just throwing that out there -- as a Guess ???????????????????????????????????????????????????
