Dear Whiskeyman, thank you for the feedback on the bottle. In answer to your question both seams end right below the neck. It is a very light green, I guess you could describe it as olive green. It is much larger than 5 gallons though. I would guess it hold about 15 gallons, but I haven't...
Hello. I would greatly appreciate any feedback regarding the worth of this bottle. It was used to store acid and was excavated from a now defunct steel mill in Chicago. It is dated 1952, but I also have some dated 1922.
Thanks Brian, I meant to post a picture the first time around but I goofed it up. Sorry about that. The bottle is very clear, it appears amber because I photographed in on an oak table.
Thanks for the warm welcome.
I found this bottle in a thrift shop and it appears to be hand made. It appears to have a seam and there are bubbles in the base of the bottle. Any help in identifying this bottle would be greatly appreciated.
