M. Allgeier Sons Brookville, PA Beer Bottle

Year Made: Between 1905 - 1914
Glassmaker: D.O.C - Dominick O. Cunningham Glass Company
Color: amber / brown
Product: beer
Bottler: Spring Brewery, Brookville, PA
Volume: 12 fluid ounces
Height: 9 5/8 inches
Weight: 15.7 ounces
Diameter: 2 3/4 inches
Seams: 2 seams fade before crown
Label Type: embossed
Closure Type: pry-off metal cap

Notes- Has "D.O.C." and "1055" on the heel. There are no ounces on the bottle which means it was made before the Gould Amendment to the Food and Drug Act went into effect on September 3, 1914. It has an Owens scar on the bottom and is machine-made with a tooled top. Owens Automatic Bottle Machines did not make bottles in large amounts until 1905 so I'm going with a date range of 1905-1914 on this bottle. Magnus Allgeier was a native of Baden, Germany born in 1842. He went into business in 1870 with the Spring Brewery in Brookville, PA. He passed away in 1913 as a well known and highly regarded citizen of Brookfield. Here is a link to an article which has more information regarding Mangus Allgeier and his Spring Brewery.
