three piece mold - year range - 5/19/2005 8:31:41 PM    1VDKHQ   Posts: 10 Joined: 5/18/2005 From: NW YORK Status: offline I sent this picture before but I don't think anyone saw it. It is a three piece mold. Looks like it was a wood mold by the texture on the bottle. It is green glass and has an applied top. Can anyone tell me a year range on this bottle? Would it have been alcohol? Thanks. Oh yeah and it has S B G on the bottom. Any ideas? Kevin [image][/image] Attachment (1) Post #: 1

Would of had a paper label at one time. PD (in reply to 1VDKHQ) Post #: 3

I've yet to start searching the origin of these bottles...I've seen your size with a "bottle"guy down here with also S&G let me know if you learn more...I'll check around... peace (in reply to 1VDKHQ) Post #: 5
