A bottle I found behind a wall while doing some renovation work on an old house a few years ago. There were a bunch of similar bottles, that seemed to be alcohol-containing "extracts" from the prohibition era. One bottle included a warning label on the back: "This preparation has been made with non-beverage alcohol, and the sale or use thereof for beverage purposes will render the vendor or user liable to severe penalties."
