Embossed Lucky Tiger Remedy Co. Kansas City MO. Bottle. Hair Care Bottle.

Embossed Lucky Tiger Hair Products Bottle.

Lucky Tiger Dandruff Remedy was first marketed around 1917 by the Lucky Tiger Dandruff Company of Kansas City, Mo. In the early 1920s, the company, now Lucky Tiger Remedy Company, was in the hands of Pleasant Stephen Harris, part owner of the successful Harris-Goar Company stores. The Lucky Tiger products were popular in barbershops, and in 1935 Harris trademarked the brand and began to market nationwide.

Advertising in the 1950s emphasized sex appeal, including an offer for free Lucky Tiger Pin-Up Girl posters for the well-groomed man’s "Tiger Lair." Although the products became less popular after hair styles changed in the 1960s, Lucky Tiger brand is still available in 2012, and includes a line of "Barber Shop Classics."

This bottle does not appear to be real old.    It has an H in a square as the bottle maker's mark on the bottom.  That indicates the Hemingray Glass Co., which according to the SHA.org site, would put it between 1924 - 1935.

The maker's marks can really help narrow down the date of a bottle.

Hazel Atlas Beer or Soda Bottle with Lightning Type Closure.

 

  

With a lightning type closure, there is a rubber stopper held by a heavy wire that is used to hold the stopper in place or open the bottle.  The has a wire and stopper that is in very good condition.

The type of closure was used mostly on beer and soda bottles, and also fruit canning jars.

Dating notes:  In general, Lightning-type closures were popular on soda and beer bottles between the late 1870s to at least National Prohibition in 1920.  After that time use was limited on beverage bottles; the crown cap dominated by then.  The peak of use on soda bottles was the mid-1870s to early 1890s though some use was made at least until 1911 (Elliott & Gould 1988).  For beer bottles, where this closure was as dominant as the Hutchinson closure was for soda bottles, the peak use period was wider than for sodas - about 1880 to the early 1910s (Feldhaus 1986; Elliott & Gould 1988).   Source (sha.org).

This particular bottle is a little bit of an enigma for me.  It was manufactured by the Hazel Atlas company and appears to me to be a later bottle than suggested by the paragraph above.    

In this case, I'm not sure of the date.  There seem to be contradicting indicators and information.

The Hazel Atlas Glass company was formed in 1902 out of a merger between the Atlas Company (circa 1880's) and the Hazel Company...

Hazel Atlas was so successful in their production, that they were the only Glass Company and one of the few publicly traded Companies in the USA to pay a stock dividend during all the depression years. Source: Hazel Atlas History (hazelatlasglass.com)
