What could it be?

[Devilflish]

Here is the tin or lead piece I found in a creek in illinois. It has some text on it. I will try to post clear pics of it.

Looks like some type of bowl broken in half... possibly a dish for burning insence?

 

[Gypsy Heart]

How big is the bowl part...Could it be a base for a wax seal stamp?

Thanks all for looking,
I'm learning how to manipulate the pics. So they look best on the forum.Thanks for you patience. I will probably get a little better each time. I hope ---- he he.
The bowl part is about -- well you can just fit a dime into it. I also hope Dave in Japan takes a look. Did you see the text? I am going to put up a pic of an old bottle I found in the same creek. Just to experiment. I cropped this one down. Hope it looks good and isn't too big.

Thanks,
Devil

Hi love, the ink is made up as you use it. You use an India ink stick and mix it with water as you need it for your writing brush.

Could this be the culprit?? The bottle looks similar, don't know if it was bottled elsewhere. www.bottlebooks.com/questions/1999miscel/question.htm

Doc

Very simlar to my Lysol, but I believe you have a small medicine.

 

[dg39]

At least the bottle is ID'ed. ON right and lower left.

 

[dg39]

Could be any number of medicines. Not where I can read labels right now. Not Lysol though.

 

[Dave N Japan]

I will get back to you on this... Have to go now!

 

[Bigcypresshunter]

It is a medicine bottle. Many different companies and medicines use the same bottle.

At least the bottle is ID'ed. ON right and lower left.

Is it Lysol or what?

Doc

Lysol is embossed, as shown earlier.

 

[Devilflish]

Thank you all for the feedback, it is wonderful. Nice collection dg and wonderful lysol bottle cypress. I can make out the bottom of the bottle it says "franklin products 1845"
