Green flask - 6/26/2010 8:00:59 AM    soda bottle   Posts: 240 Joined: 5/27/2010 Status: offline Bought this Flask at the local Flea Market. I like the way it looks. It has a bunch of seeds in the glass, but I cant get a good picture of it. Stands about 5 1/2 inches tall. Anybody have any info on it? Is it a reproduction ? About how old is it?

Not worth much but pretty. _____________________________ Jim Sinsley from northern Idaho. 45 year bottle collector Always buying WAW-WAW bottles and advertising, Santa Ana, California and Coeur d' Alene, Idaho bottles, bottles 2 1/2 " or less tall, Bottles with embossed OWL.

Your flask is a Clevenger Bros. repro likely made in the 1950s', but possibly earlier. It appears as if someone did some grinding on the mouth , thus hurting its value even as a repro.
