Wonder if it was the inner breast pocket sipper.

I like the color. Must have been a lady's flask.

Probably clear at one time and just turned that colour because of the UV.
We used to leave certain bottles out in the sun for a few seasons to colour them up.

That's a sun-colored amethyst "pumpkin seed" flask.

Here's one of my fav's:

How about a Klondyke Whiskey flask. Mine with paint removed,
and one in original condition.

It's called a "pumpkin seed flask" and wasn't just a ladies bottle. I was made for pocket carry. I have one I've had for years that I put out in the sun and it turned a healthy purple!

Yes you're correct on the pumpkin seed lmask
Was thinking along the lines of the inner suit/jacket pocket.
Post up your flask-don't be shy now.

Sweet looking flask-Thanks for showing of the beauty.

Now I know it as the Klondike though I can't recall a flask like this-really a cool piece of historical glass. Thanks for posting it up.

Very nice indeed! Is the one on the right the older of the two? Great display flask.

A nice blue strap side flask from the Withlacoochee River found in 1971.

It's 9 1/2" tall...sorry I left that out.

I'm not certain that it can be determined which is the older. The bottles were blown in a handful of glassworks, and these two examples are clearly blown in different molds. Later bottles were blown in molds with the SCD monogram, but the whole Dispensary system lasted only about 14 years.
