Hello Leonard,

It sure is a beautiful bottle! Would that one would appear in a dirt pile near me. But I very much doubt that might happen, cuz it's a very long way to Cape Town.

"One of my favourite Aqua glass bottles and an all time South African (and Australian) favourite product BROOKE'S "LEMOS" lemon cordial. South Africans could be forgiven for believing that OROS is an older product than LEMOS, in fact, according to a bottle recently acquired the design was registered in the Union of South Africa :38/1926. BROOKE'S 171-2/1933, Trademark (Lemos man carrying bottle 575 -6/1924 and LEMOS 748-9/1926)
The richly embossed 2 piece mould aplied lip bottle pictured here has REGd No13 on base and India REGd No 8449 REGd No 2596 AUST. on the side and must be one of the earliest examples known." From Rod Comer's South African site.

Looks like there was a similar cordial style

"C (scarce rating) Brooke's "Lemos" still going strong in S.A. today, unfortunately in a cheap and nasty plastic container but still a really refreshing drink." From.

Despite the beauty and intricate mould, I see one offered for $10.

$10" From.

This is apparently "it" today, From.

I'm sure Dale will be able to offer a better view, and local perspective, when he sees this.
