Green stopper 11/24/15

Hi folks,
A fellow TNet member (Mich. Wolverine) suggested I post here this green stopper I found on a field hunt to see if any of you can ID it. I always enjoy finding the old glass. Thanks for any help and keep digging!

That pic I snagged from the net. Google smelling salt bottles and look at images. I have one of these around that I dug, it's buried in boxes somewhere. Buffalo is not to far away from me. I have dug maybe five whole smelling salts, and Larkin is the most common around here. My best was a California Perfume Co. with stopper, dug back when I was about ten years old. I sold it for about 5 bucks at a show to help pay for college in the eighties. Since then, I found out that the california perfume co is predecessor to Avon, and that smeller I sold was worth a few hundred back in the day. Doh!..

yup! Mines got a chunk of the lip missing. Hence why it's not cleaned.

You can make out LSC in the monogram on the stopper.

I wouldn't have guessed that first letter on the stopper was an L.
