Thread: Rexall Shaving Lotion bottle

At 7-1/2" by 3" by 1-5/8", this is a good size for my purposes.
AUD$26.60 is a bit expensive but these are as rare as hen's teeth.

I like that bottle, nice find!!

How old would this be?

MJC, I couldn't really say except to guess sometime between 1940-1960.
If you check out this link, you will find the 1926 catalogue for the Illinois Glass Company:

They made bottles for everyone, and I can see what I believe to be (between pg-72 to pg-92)
the Ed Pinaud, Lucky Tiger, Floris of London, Larkin, Aqua Velva, Vitalis, Jeris, etc bottles.
I could be wrong though !!

This is a pic of what the label would have looked like, sadly not mine :


These are two sample pages that have helped/confused me with dating !!

Can I assume that just to find it with the stopper is rare?

I hope to be able to continue to enjoy this through your quest, as I do not need yet another passion at the moment.

Thank you for sharing and I will be on the look-out for you.

I think that it's rare in the sense that a majority (well over 50%) of old bottles don't have their stopper/cap/sprinkle-pourer
when they come up for sale.

Keep in mind that I'm certainly no expert !!....I just know what I like ....

Hope this helps and thanks for your kind words of encouragement.

That's a very nice find ...

I remember Rexall.
