Found on the Folly - Old bottles - Bathroom and medicine brands

I've found many old bottles, I had no idea that most of the brands we know today are so old.  Everything was so much smaller long ago!


                                  Unfortunately none of these bottles had any embossed names
                                  so I couldn't identify them. I think they are all for medicine or pills
                                  except for the round one that might be a perfume bottle


 
               
Here we have from left to right, Listerine, Dettol,Vicks (blue jar), 
Co-Re-Ga denture adhesive powder (still with the label showing, amazing!)                                          Lennons, Vaseline x 2 and Cutex (the bottle still contains pink nail polish).



Listerine was created in 1879

The vaseline bottle (top one, above the cutex, is from 1936, it has a stamp on the bottom)
