A resident of Kaliningrad, 26-year-old Sergei Popov, found an old bottle of the early 20th century at one of the city's construction sites, inside of which there were more than 20 small candies with the image of crossed bones on the label.
“I have been searching and collecting since I was 14 years old. And I have in my collection 25 bottles of poison from 30 milliliters to a liter. But for the first time I ran into paper bundles. I looked at what was written on the labels, entered it into Google, and found a description of this poison there. “Poison” is written on the wrapper in all languages, including Russian with a solid sign at the end,”Popov said.
The young man said that the bottle was produced, presumably, at the beginning of the 20th century, the contents were preserved so well, according to him, due to the fact that the bottle was tightly closed with a cork.
“I have dug out brewer's yeast in tablets, they are hermetically sealed and have lain underground for a hundred years. Since I have been collecting for a long time and have a lot of interesting items in my collection, mainly bottles, of course, I want to have my own small museum in the future,”Popov said.
