Whats the smallest bottle you have found?

[JakePhelps]

This has gotta be a new record
Its early 1900's i think, For some reason it has no side mold seams, but the cap is pretty modern, the dump was late 1800's to early 1900's.

What are these small bottles Are they food coloring or something

 

[jeff of pa]

How about 1" across & 1 3/4" tall

 

[SHERMANVILLE ILLINOIS]

Jeff,

any idea what it was for?

If I had to guess I would say some type "magic new life pills" which were big in late 1800's early 1900"s. So many different feel good pills were sold, a cure for everything.

MY GUESS their Perfume Bottles

This one 1 1/2 tall & 1 1/4 across & BOTH are 1/2" thick

 

[JakePhelps]

You beat us Jeff Those are the smallest bottles i have ever seen. They could be from free samples or pills, any idea how old they are?

 

[jeff of pa]

The top one has Threads & a 19 on the Bottom
the Bottom one has a top that would have took a Cork (Stopper) & has a 4 on the Bottom.

? My Guess these are Dates, & would make sense.

Holes are So Tiny on top, IF pills they would have to be Smaller then NITRO Pills,

TOP one 3/16"? Bottom one 1/4 "

That's why I think Perfume.

Yours May be an Old ALKA-SELZER Bottle ?

The tiny bottles with small openings held perfume.

Jake:Your bottle with the tin top looks like this first pic. Second pic a little bigger and newer.

 

[Bigcypresshunter]

Here is the pics.

Jeff: Seems an exact match. Silver Label after shave lotion distributed by the Fuller Brush Company.

Enter this first perfume in the smallest bottle contest. It's 5/8" square and 1 3/16" tall, mostly threads.

One more mini--cobalt blue given to me by a guy named Mel, Key West 1980.

this is the smallest bottle I hae found. I dug this up last weekend on a delta island in california. It is 2" tall and 1/2" wide.

 

[JakePhelps]

Looks really old, hand blown

 

[Bigcypresshunter]

It does look old...I have seen this shape but cannot remember...hand blown,cork top...before 1900....maybe an opium bottle...nice find.

My bottle is very similar to Jake's. Bottle is 2 3/4 inches tall and a 1/2 inch in diameter. It still has a clear fluid in it. I haven't been able to unscrew the cap. I'm not quite sure if I want to. I found it at a boarded up funeral home built in 1914. I found it buried with it with a few other bottles from the 1800's.
