    Any help appreciated! I am not very knowledgeable when it comes to bottles...other than I'm pretty sure it is at least ...80 years old? Also, what would it have been used for? It is sort of flask shaped Thanks :) oh and it is about 10 inches tall.

    Your circa 1880 bottle is for a product called Ayers hair Vigor.
    It was blown in a mold and has an applied lip.
    The distinctly shaped bottle had an "All over" label.
    Though examples with mostly intact labels are scarce and can command a ...reasonable sum the plain unlabeled specimens are quite common, not garnering much collector interest.
