    Hi Jim, Thanks so much for the reply. As I say, my knowledge of bottles is extremely limited, but I'm looking forward to learning more from everyone's input here. I conducted a trusty Google search for B.T. Archer, but could not find anything about the manufacturer. I know it is not an...

    B.T. Archer & Co.

    Greetings everyone, I'm very new to the bottle world and most of my interests lie in identifying some of my finds from scuba diving the black waters of South Carolina. The photos attached are of a brown bottle with raised lettering reading "B.T. Archer & Co, Agents, Richmond, VA" The bottom of...
