What is this item ?

[Fred8888]

There is a lobby card you probably all know,
showing Ray and Art digging the Klopeks
Backyard, I see Ray holding a bottle of glass
But Iam not sure...What do you think ?

I once read they filmed a scene in which they are digging out some sort of bomb but didn't use it in the final cut. Could this be some kind of grenade or something?

But to me it also looks like a bottle.

definitely a glass bottle. Possibly a Coke but the shape looks different.
