Always that strapside form with the wine style lip. Clean they usually sell for about $20 +/-$10. Made at the end of the 19th century. _____________________________ Looking for Frederick Maryland and Dr Fahrney Bottles 2008 Medicine Bottle Price Guide on CDROM http://www.mattsoldhouse.com/MC/bottles/BottleBook2008.htm email http://www.mattsoldhouse.com/MC/bottles/email.jpg (in reply to Churchillea) Post #: 4

Here's a brief history SS Pierce Co Here's one for Omega oil http://www.frankjump.com/001.html The soda may be harder, Walker's was around for a while. I think they went out about the same time a Cliquot Club. It looks similar and I'm guessing it's ABM crown top but I can't tell from the pic and description. _____________________________ My 10¢ worth (inflation) Eric If you love what your doing it might be illegal, so watch your back.
