I questioned that as well. However, I contacted the White House Bottle Collector group on Facebook via their messenger portal and here is the answer I was given:
James these apple butter jars were produced in the 30's so they are a newer version of the one that has the white house building...
I know that this isn't an extremely old, and more than likely a common bottle, however, my interest lies in the historical facts about Frommer's. The only marking on the bottle is an embossed 30N on the bottom outside lip. I have attempted to search this forum and the net for Frommer's but no...
I have searched quite a bit and can not find this White House Vinegar jar with "White House Vinegar" embossed diagonally. I have seen many of this type of jar with the White House logo, (ie) the White House itself and the White House Vinegar name embossed, but none like the one pictured. Is this...
I was given this bottle by a friend and would like to know a bit more about it. I have searched the forum and haven't found very much on the older embossed ones. The only markings on the bottle are "Robertson's Beverages" around the top band; "Beaufont Bottling Works Washington NC" around the...
My wife picked up two of these jugs and I don't know for sure exactly what they were designed to hold. On a pottery forum, someone said that they are preserve jugs used before the onset of glass canning jars and a wax seal was used to hold a tin top in place as the first picture indicates. This...

I would like to know more about this bottle. I've searched online, as well as here on the forums, but can not seem to locate very much information on the company or approximate age of it. On the front the embossing reads: Registered and below that: Victor Bottling Works / Chicopee Falls Mass...
After searching online the only examples of this bottle that I could find were pale yellow in color. I couldn't seem to locate any detailed information regarding the contents of the tonic itself. I'm really unsure if this is pre-1900 or later bottle so please forgive me if it it is post 1900...
Here are a couple recent low cost auction wins. I am unsure if they are pree-1900 or later. I know that the J.P. Shaw & Son bottle is an English Ginger Beer bottle but have been unable to find any reference as to its age. Also, I'm not sure as to what originally was in the J. Bourne bottle or if...
