    Hey Tom, that's the first embossed cold cream jar I've seen you find. I can tell you one thing about older "decorative" bottles you find. And this applies to only the clear ones. My great grandmother used to save them after they were empty and then put differing colors of food coloring in them and place them on widow sills as a decoration - especially in kitchens and bathrooms. That may be why you sometimes find older bottles mixed in with the 1910-1920 bottles in homes like that.

    Unless things are done significantly different outside of the Carolinas, a true dinner bell is 12-16” and sits on a post and is rang with a rope to let the family know to come [from the barn, farm fields, woods, etc.] to the table to eat.
    That little guy looks more like the bell a teacher would use to get the class’ attention.

    Seems when there is less alcohol in the pit, there is also less Bromo seltzer and medicine bottles. So often it seems that the alcohol and medicine bottles are 1 for 1. This family must have believed in some good eats only! 😋😍

      Considering that they were all home owners, I doubt it. But then again, I wasn't living back then either. Alcohol has friends in high places too. And financial stresses of the well-off will also give need for the old bromo. 🤣@@653j521

    • @Mrhalligan39
      @Mrhalligan39 Год назад

      The “medicine” bottles were likely to be liqueur based alcohol mixers, which were often hand made by individual druggists. Sazerac is one such example. Most everything came in an alcoholic tincture in those days, both for preservation and for that “strong medicine” impression.

    • @staylor5687
      @staylor5687 Год назад

      Very similar today as many liquid medicines have alcohol in them too. Just goes to show that alcohol doesn't make you better, nor does any of that "snake oil" medicine they sold then or now. The only thing that helps after that is Bromo seltzer! Lol @@Mrhalligan39
