  • 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.
