    This old bottle is embossed with: H.E. Kinsloe, Fairfield, Iowa
    The glass is very thick, I'm wondering if it was a medicine or "snake oil" bottle & who H.E. Kinslsoe was. Was he a Doctor? I've been unable to find any information regarding him @ Fairfiled, Iowa.
    I'd greatly appreciate any information.

      You're welcome..I don't do Facebook, but can view pages. Google shows there is a fb page that has Fairfiled, Iowa history and mentions the bottler as well..

      "Jennie Travis (Johnson) (1859-1944) and Alexander Easton (1842-1934). Oscar's father bought Harris E. Kinsloe's old bottling works.."

      I scrolled, but did not see that post..

      i think this is what is referred to as a 'blob top' bottle. i really like this kind.
