L. WERBACH & Co/MILLWAUKEE WIS - 7/24/2008 12:37:01 AM    Penn Digger   Posts: 275 Joined: 5/12/2008 From: N Penn Status: offline A friend of mine told me earlier today that they had a bottle for me.  Lived downtown and was having some stairs put down from the second floor to the alley way below (holes dug).  Showed up and they got the bottle for me, but the base was missing (not bottle people). A crier for NW PA!!! Cornflower/light cobalt blue fat hutch "L. WERBACH & Co MILLWAUKEE WIS."  and on the back "A & D.H.C." Beautiful bottle, anybody know anything about it???  I have permission to dig there and will soon.  I have not yet googled the bottle.

Hopefully I can find some cobalt  soda bottles. Brian (in reply to Penn Digger) Post #: 2

Its more on the common end as far as cobalt hutches go. In good shape they sell in the term of $150 or so. I saw one in milwaukee this year selling for 100 and it had a potstone with a crack in it. Definately a beautiful bottle and ive wanted one for a long time _____________________________ Looking for any Fond du Lac bottle. Also looking for any embossed wisconsin medicines.

I checked my references and there are no hutches with the a & d h c makers mark. There is however a cobalt transitional style blob soda. Its listed as a blob soda but is only a little over 6 inches tall. Does your bottle look like it has a kind of elongated neck on it? Anyways this bottle is in the same price range as that hutch (maybe a little lower) but is older. kind of like this one but with a little shorter neck edit--didnt notice the milwaukee mispelling (two ll's.) here the right variation http://www.mrbottles.com/galleryimage.asp?ID=1445 < Message edited by Tony14 -- 7/24/2008 3:33:36 PM > _____________________________ Looking for any Fond du Lac bottle.
