I believe this is one of the Crownford repros. The seller seems to be selling as and actual old bottle. I think they are marked Crownford on the bottom. I'll ask the seller and see what he says.

I should have left the Crownford (on the base)part out when I sold mine. I got $5 from someone named Smith.  Hey, he may have been related to me, that was my mothers maiden name.

Matt...I saw that.
yep...Crownford-Italy.
That so-called fire grenade he has looks Italian made as well.
The huge ruby red "seal" is interesting, as I wonder who/where made?

I call that the Superman Fire Grenade since only superman could lift it if it was full of water 
There are a number of items there of questionable origin...
