Here is a picture of the small bottles I’ve found over the years. A few poison bottles and a few atomizers. I love the violin perfume. The Larkin was my first nice bottle. I can pick it up and remember everything about the moment I found it 40 years ago! Definitely my favorite find ever! I've always wondered about the Colburn’s mustard laundry bluing bottle. Nothing I can find can link the two. Apparently there were two other mustard makers that also did this. I hope you all find a nice bottle pit this spring! 5AC94874-B3AD-4CAC-83EB-9722FDF6DA41.jpeg A5A400E0-32FD-46FB-955A-A1A6AAC7898A.jpeg22F2316C-6FCD-4E02-AA67-E96BBA596528.jpeg

some nice looking bottles there
 

Have to say I like the violin bottle also.
 

The Colburn's advertising inkwell is my favorite by far. Killer find!
 

Thanks Goldboy! Good luck this summer, I hope you find some nice ones! Thanks No Gold, that was an eyeball find. I had a nicer one with embossing but have sold it. Thanks Sandchip, Maybe the mustard could be used as bluing also. Thanks for the posts!
