Default Bottle help

Was out on a can dump yesterday probably dating back to the mid 30s. Was a logging/railroad moble community located there. No sign of where the actual buildings were, I'm looking, but did find several dumps.
Found several of these bottles, along with a ton of whiskey bottles, figured they were soda pop bottles but not having any "bottle experience" don't know for sure.. Thanks for any help Bob

Looks like a relish or small ketchup bottle to me I dug many of them up like yours but I just tossed over my shoulder and kept on digging for more bottles unless your bottle has seams running up the sides and stopping halfway up the neck, then I would keep it cause it would change purple if you sit in the sun for a long time maybe 6 months or so!!!

Thanks Mr. Silver, I had that same thought but it doesn't have a screw top so was wondering. Your probably right cause there are quite a few in the area. Bob

Default Definately Ketchup

Heinz has been producing this product for many years. This particular bottle is just one of many styles that it has been packaged in.

I too toss them and keep going. Keep looking not all people put ketchup on everything. There is bound to be other more collectable items in there as well.
Good Luck
