I recently aquired my first American codd bottle circa 1885-1915. Standard Mineral Water Brinton & Brosius Philadelphia. It is in good shape, and has the marble and rubber gasket also.
I know children used to break the bottles to get the marble and that was a problem that codd bottles had.An elderly collector friend of mine came across a Codd from Columbus, Georgia that was missing about half the neck and looked like it had been dragged down the road for a mile or two, but he acted like a child on Christmas day just knowing that one actually existed.
I would be jelous of anyone who found a codd bottle also. I confess this is one of the few i had to buy. The price is right Bob Barker.Nice codd bottle ! Any American Cod bottle is worth keeping! I am jealous, never found one yet
