"tonsiline"

historic

Reading some of your information given on the Historic Glasshouse site I have a couple of questions concerning a clear bottle. Seam is all the way to top of lip so could be machine made and post 1910 correct?

The interesting part at least to me is one side of the bottle reads "tonsiline" the otherside says "for sore throat" and there is an embossed head and neck of a giraffe on the front.

The underside has a "6" on one end and appears to a diamond which looks like a roman no. two or five on it in the center

Does it have any value and is it one in a thousand or a thousand just like it.
Thank you John

Yes, machine made bottles really did not kick into widespread production until the 1920s

These bottles are fairly common - although more attractive than many others of the period, they do not have much value.

This medication is still made today! See http://www.millersrexall.com/webstore/product_info.php/products_id/1804
