    Anyone with info on this Boot bottle?

    [8|] This does appear to be an Italian reproduction of a boot bottle that was originally issued in the 1880s. The original as far as I recall, was clear. I believe this bottle to be post WW2. Probably early 1950's.

    figurals

    [8|] I'm trying to remember. I know these are about 1880 and I believe they are the Czar and Czarina of Russia. They are American made, but I do not remember why they were issued. Duh. Also, I could be wrong. It's been a while.

    Identification help please

    All I can determine is that these bottles appear to be made around 1880-90 period. Good luck in your search.

    long neck bottle

    It is an ABM (automatic bottle machine) crown top. Judging from the overall style of the crown and shape, probably dates around 1930-50. Looks like a soda pop bottle to me. Saigon Joe

    Help identifying bottle

    [8|] Well, I aint gonna be much help but it it a crown top and appears to be beer or ale. Considering the patriotism and style of the label, Matha Washington /True Blue, I would place it around WWI era. 1917, into the mid 1920's. The bottle itself has little value, but the label is the prize...

    Disney lent his name and characters to different food manufacturers over the years, most examples are from post WW2 into the mid 1950's. This appears to be a condiment (jelly?)bottle of sorts. I would check Ebay listings as these bottles and cans show up from time to time under Disney...
