Mystery Bottle Lid - 19th Century Ranch

[49r Relics]

Found this very near an 1899 I.O.O.F. Golden Jubilee Badge, not sure if any connection at all. Everything we found there was pre-1930, mostly 19th century. This item is heavy for its size, feels like pewter, too strong to be lead but it is malleable. I don't recognize the character but it does resemble an old image of Wyatt Earp that I have seen. Seriously doubt any connection there either.

Any ideas? Thanks for looking!

I think it is a cap to John H. Woodbury's Dental Cream or an early tube of soap or his cold cream. But I do not think he had cold cream in tubes, just jars. I think it may date to the 1910's.

I had given up on ID'ing this one after lots of research. Fantastic work and a very quick ID as well.

Thanks!
