    Description

    This is a vintage, clear Round Ink bottle also referred to as a Cylinder Ink or Round Mucilage bottle (for glue).  The bottle likely had a label and was machine made.  This style of ink bottle was typical from 1900 thru the 1930s and was utilized by ink companies such as Sheaffers and Waterman.    My father, an avid bottle digger, found the bottle in the ruins of an old school in Virginia more than 40 years ago. The bottle is in great shape, free from breaks or cracks. Clarity is very nice.  The clear, round bottle measures about 2.25" tall and 2" wide.
