[QUOTE="42Skeezix, post: 113208, member: 40"]The patent referred to is probably April 25 1882 issued to Alfred Babcock. The bottle was called a "Perfumery bottle" in the patent. The glass is blown thus the ground neck for the screw top. Circa 1880s-1900. Not rare but much nicer than the candy container lanterns that came along much later...circa 1900-30s. I've seen a few of these but never in any color other than this green. Never blue, red, clear, amber, aqua...just this green.
