Picture Embossed Milk - 8/22/2010 3:10:22 PM    CanYaDigIt Posts: 989 Joined: 2/5/2009 From: Back In Sac, CA Status: offline I don't really collect milks, but I couldn't pass this one up when I saw it. Any clue as to where it's from? The name sounds french and the address pops up in Canada, so I though that was possible. Has anyone seen this milk before, or even one embossed with a cow? It's an earlier one, probably 1920s-30s. Thanks _____________________________ Comes a time when the blind man takes your hand, says "Don't you see" Post #: 1

RE: Picture Embossed Milk - 8/27/2010 12:07:36 AM    CanYaDigIt Posts: 989 Joined: 2/5/2009 From: Back In Sac, CA Status: offline Alright! I tracked it down. I'm 99% certain that it's from Rochester, NY. I found a marriage record from 1925 in Rochester. Louis Paskal married Agnes Huddy. The record said they would travel west after the wedding, but remain in Rochester. There just so happens to be a 65 Spencer St. in Rochester, coincidence? Then I found the piece that clinched it for me. There are records online of a Paskal Dairy milk bottle from Rochester, NY. I'm convinced. Wonder how it got to CA. Milks are something I know nothing about. I know the value depends 90% on region. Is Rochester a very collectible region for milks? _____________________________ Comes a time when the blind man takes your hand, says "Don't you see" (in reply to photolitherland) Post #: 5
