Domestic object - Bottle, AGM (Australian Glass Manufacturers), Phenyle bottle, 1950s
Brown Phenyl bottle glass, shaped as a parallelogram (or diamond); would have been sealed with a cork.

It was from an era when most common household poisons had their own unique shaped bottle so if the label was removed or illiterate people still knew what the contents were. Brown glass, shaped as a parallelogram (or diamond); would have been sealed with a cork. Embossed: “This bottle is the property of VDMA” “Not To Be Taken” “Poisonous” “Regd No 2140”. It also has stars embossed to indicate a poison bottle. The base has the AGM markings for post 1934.bottles, agm, agm (australian glass manufacturers), phenyl -
