Found this bottle today laying right on top of dirt that a dozer had pushed to this spot about a wk. ago, I can't see why nobody picked it up, it was only 2 ft. from sidewalk. It says Listerine and Lambrect Pharmacuticals.

Some people can't recognize a valuable antique even if it's within snake bite range! LOL
 

Still has the cork and contents in it, should I leave the cork in? I know zero about old bottles.
 

If you leave the cork in you will have to turn it to its side to keep the cork wet b/c if you dont the cork will dry up & fall in the bottle, that happened to my dad once with one of 1880s whiskey bottles.
 

cool, i found one the other day too, dug it up

Just last week I dug up an old Listerine bottle. It came from a cowboy camp in No. Cal. Mine cleaned up pretty well. They are fairly common and probably not worth much yet, but they are fun to find. I can't determine the size of the original poster's bottle, but mine is NOT the tiny one, dang. I like that little one. ;)
