    The Bakelite piece that had the threaded metal ends, was the actual Atomizer, probably for the perfume bottle you dug right after it. It was missing the rubber bulb, which you also dug a bit after the bottle.

    That torpedo-looking bottle that had a bent neck, which you had called an oil bottle, I believe could be a vintage baby bottle, especially since you found a rubber bulb that you thought might be part of a breast pump, as well as some thing called a lactopeptine bottle.
    🤔😊
    Of course, some other fans of yours have suggested good possibilities, too!
    Ink jar, birdcage water bottle, medicine-administering bottle for bedridden patients. So interesting, whatever its purpose was! 👍

    Greetings from B.C., Tom and Jake : Although I've seen a lot of your videos , a favourite of mine was the recent with the 3 pioneer Hutchisons, all super rare( 2 from one bottler).Probably my top pick, though, was your episode on the dig of the notorious Tackett's Station.Like you, I favour age and history. Wonder if you will do future digs at other early stagecoach stops( across the Plains)
