    C Borstelmann Canarsie Blob Top

    Does anyone have any information on this bottle. There doesn't seem to be too much info on it. I do not believe it's a beer bottle, so most likely soda or seltzer. This is from Mikesbottleroom: "Charles Borstelmann was born in 1856 in Germany. He then immigrated to the United States and...

    Info on Thorndale Farms Dairy from NYC

    Pretty sure it's a tooled top as the seem fades as it approaches the top of the bottle. The maker's mark is on the base, I believe it reads, "F.B. Co"
