Old Small White Jar?

[foraging_fissfoss]

Hi All, cleaning up the deschutes river you find alot of trash but you also find alot of WWI/WWII and Logging Relics. Today we found this cute little white jar. We thought it might be an old pill container from pharmacy. Can anyone identify? The Substrate is white glass. Thank you!

Mentholatum Vintage White Milk Glass Old Small 2" Ointment Salve Jar
Solved?

Its milk glass, a common find in 1900-1930s trash pits. Not pills but a rub on cream for aches and pains.

BUT its worth $13 on ebay. BIG MONEY

Mentholatum was still used as a chest rub when I was a kid.

Mentholatum, I think it was similar to Vicks Vapo-Rub.

That's what someone is asking for it. Check the completed items. A Mentholatum jar didn't even sell for 99 cents. Not worth big money.
