this is actually one of the first bottles i ever found but at same time easily the best bottle i have ever found , dug the bottle in a dump on our own property when i was very young , can't remember exact age but would of still been in public school .
anyways the bottle is for muskoka dry ginger ale ( local beverage company in my area ) , its 30 oz and from around 50's . this size and condition of the bottle is fairly rare . i've not ever seen another one available for sale in this size to be honest .

Since you said best and not most valuable I'd said mine was a Fisher Bros. Dairy Milk bottle from my hometown. It is a 1916 Thacher glass bottle that is the only one I know that exists. Not worth much to someone outside of my home county but priceless to me. I've dug lots of valuable bottles but I like local bottles the best.

Dug these two at the site of the G.W. WELLS bottling plant back in the early 1960s. Not impressive compared to others but Southern California is much newer to the developed part of the country than "back East" so these are two of the better bottles from the town of my birth.
