Hey jamey. In order for a good ID, we bottle guys need clear pics of the top, base, mold seam, and whole bottle.

Hello jamey

Nice little flared lip on that pontiled puff. Can you make out any lettering on the paper label. Interesting texture on that paper, it appears…

... a ponytail puff hugh...

My spellchecker always tries to make it "ponytail," but the rough spot on the base is a pontil scar. Indicating that it is perhaps Civil War era or earlier.
