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…

That's a nice get from an estate sale. Looks like original contents too.

thanks surf and bottlehunter no it is hard to make out, a ponytail puff hugh,where would be a good place to sell this as i think it is the original contents and maybe could be a drug?think ebay would allow it

 

[jamey]

that picture is cool also im going to more sales

... 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.
