    Can someone please help me identify this glass?

    After the tropical storm that went through my area I went down to the river behind my house and began to dig through the bank.
    While doing do I came across a few bottles that seemed old so I figured i would keep them.
    I have been unable to place this exact bottle, and any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Sorry for the poor quality. I took these pics with my phone.(It's old)
    I can take other angles if the need arises.

    The front says: STRAUSS


    The bottom says:W T Co. U.S.A.

    From the looks of it, it could be a whiskey bottle.

    The W T Co stands for Whitall Tatum Company (Uber old company that makes glass, somewhat rare today)

    iirc, the way it's written there, it could be a 1910~1920 bottle.

    Edit: Judging from internet sources, my whiskey guess is probably off lol.
    More likely to be a bottle for prescription drugs.

        There's a forum dedicated to... bottles?

        Might as well post in the 'What is it? AFTER 1900' part of the forum.
        The bottle is probably just barely after the 1900.

                  I think the weirdest community I've seen is one where it's all about getting as fat as possible and living the "good life" being hospitalized so they can eat all day.

                        Seems like I’ve come down with that most un-common thing where I live – a (pre) Christmas cold.

                        It started with malaise and a sore throat last night, which I put down to lack of sleep, too much manual labour and getting pool water up my nose during my after-work swimming session. I came to consciousness sometime in the middle of the night to realise my throat felt like it was burning, and thought vaguely in my sleepy state that this was a bad sign.

                        Woke up late to a similarly burning throat and barely made it out of the door before sneezing a very throaty and painful single into the morning air. Reaching the car I blew my nose before setting off for work – which pretty much turned into a nightmare of keeping myself upright and going for 9 hours. And acting like everything was completely normal, because I hate anyone to know when I’m sick.

                        I spent most of the day sucking on throat lozenges whilst trying to pull as much stock from storage as possible. This would have been fine, but since customers were constantly asking me questions, by lunch time I was beginning to worry my voice would give out. Fortunately despite tingling sinuses I only sneezed once all shift, but this turned out to be a completely embarrassing monster than sent a glob of green snot onto the shoulder of my sleeve. Something which I was unable to clean up since customer after customer kept asking for help Fortuantely, my shirt is also mostly green

                        Since I’ve been home my cold has been developing rapidly; I sneezed a misty single on my hands while driving home, fell asleep sitting up waiting for my dinner to cook and have been suffering a headache, completely stuffed sinuses and occasionally drippy nose. I’ve sneezed 6 times in the last hour, each wetter than the last, and ruined several tissues.

                        Thankfully I have 2 days off to enjoy. I do love coming down with a cold over the course of my last day of work for the week.
                        yep.

                          "misty single" sounds like a snowboarding trick

                          also I'm pretty impressed that you got an answer as informed as Evnoir's five minutes after making the thread. Well ****ing done, sir.\

                          edit: they have a TGB-equivalent forum that looked actually promising from the rules thread but it seems to have turned into LiveJournal.
