Wellll Robby, the Codd that I dug up was a surprise for me and helped me complete run of DH Smiths from Yonkers. (i know completely valueless) but its kinda cool having so many different bottles from Smith. Tooled crown top 6 oz., tooled blob top 6 oz., tooled hutchinson, tooled 9" blobtop, tooled 28oz blob top, and the 8 oz codd

Oh i know yonkers..."Forget about it!" thats all i know.

I was under the impression that there was only one. What other than Mignon Bottling Works Co. Galveston Texas.

There is one from the Star Bottling Works of Houston.

I've been blessed by the bottle spirits a few times now with Codd kick backs. The first was this NYC embossed one, don't have it handy at the moment to list the embossing, and its hard to read in this 10 year old picture. Found it in the lake muck of Central Park

Second was this unembossed slick example, found in a shallow surface dump in the woods of my home town, pictured here with the other keepers of that day...

And in the 5 years I've been in the town I'm at now I've found dozens of these star embossed Codds in many locations, unfortunately all broken so far, the most intact one pictured here with a great group of keepers I scored one day at a demo site....

Hi I found these two Cod Stoppers diving in Halifax Harbour not the cleanest place in the world. while poking around looking for bottles I came by an old rusty cable in a tangle on the bottom thinking anything under the cable if it didn't break should be untouched I moved around some of the pieces and came by these two codd stoppers

May I ask (as a total greenhorn to collecting), what is a Codd?

It is easier to answer you by providing a link than it is to write explanation; so here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Codd-neck_bottle

I only own 1 American Codd & this is it. Looks a lot like yours.

I am working for a complete list that isn't complete. Why doesn't that surprise me. I am sure there are more missing. Thank you so much for the correction. I will make a note of it. Alot of star bottling works out there. Could probably have a large collection of just different star bottles.
