I picked up this crate over the weekend, but to date, have been unable to find any history on this company.
I was hoping someone on this forum might have come across a bottle from said company and knows a little bit about it.

The volume of the bottle is indicated to be 1 Pint 11 Ounces.
I did a google search and I couldn't find anything about the Brooklyn Bottling company
Is this a blob top bottle ?
Thanks !
I picked up a bottle over the weekend that had the James Butler name embossed on it.
(actual embossing is:
James Butler
N.Y. Inc
inside a circle)
Does anyone have any background info on this company ?
One side of the bottle reads:
WEHMHOEFER BROS.
CO.
111.
CONSELYEA ST
BROOKLYN.E.D.
CONTENTS 9 OZ.
The other side of the bottle reads:
REGISTERED
<COMPANY LOGO>
1892
All this bottle says is : THIS BOTTLE NOT TO BE SOLD The bottom of the it has NO 2 written on it. Can anyone comment on how old this bottle is and maybe who made it ?
Thanks. I found some info on E. Matthews, but I figured asking members of this forum for any other info couldn't hurt. Any idea what a bottle from this time period is worth ? That's the million dollar question !
Here is the information you requested. This bottle stands 9 1/2" tall and 2 3/4" wide.
Thank you for responding to my post. I don't know much about bottles, so I appreciate whatever information you can provide me. The front of the bottle reads(surrounding the EM log):E MATTHEWS

I've done some research on this bottle and it appears that it was manufactured in the late 1800. If anyone has any more information on this bottling company please let me know.
