    This also came in the box of "pharmacy"/Dr. stuff I bought at yard sale.
    It says : FOL. BELLAD.
    Bottom has: Made in USA stamped into the bottom
    Anyone have any idea what it is for or what "FOL. BELLAD" means.
    What to do something with all this stuff, but am lost as to what it is.

      i think that it stands for foliorum belladonna - or belladonna leaves - a narcotic poison.

      Thanks.....Ewwwww....so the leaves or "poison" were stored in this jar in a Dr. office - possibly??? I'll research it further now.
