jericho

i found it in the woods a few weeks ago,its a dark brown color. its a smaller sized bottle and it just says poison. there's a symbol on the bottom there's a six and a x shaped symbol. dose any one know what was in it and the age. The mold seem go's all the way across the bottle and ends at the base.

historic

There is an entire category of bottle collecting devoted to bottles which are marked with the text POISON or POISONOUS

The bottles may have contained a substance used as a poison (think rat poison) or a drug which if misused could be deadly, or just a chemical product that is downright dangerous. The most famous of all is a figural skull bottle which is quite valuable. Many such bottles were marked with a skull and crossbones.

Yours is machine made and probably dates from the second quarter of the 20th century.
