Earliest Soda Bottles

I thought everyone would enjoy this early one from St Louis Mo. It is black glass and it is pontil. It is embossed D.H. HEDGES & cO. ST LOUIS MO.

Here is a shot of the pontil on it. Not open pontil but still a very early soda.

It's killer Theo,

I loved getting to see that one in person. Do you know of another?

This has the early ale shape. I love the shape. The only one I know of from the Midwest.

He has the aqua Theo. I've never seen or heard of another of either one tho other than the two you both have. Great stuff!
