I picked up this old Florida Water bottle. John Taylor and Co. Toronto. Tombstone slugplate.

Perfumes and Florida waters aren't really my thing, but I like this one - the embossing is a little wonky and the bottle is somewhat local to me.

Anyone come across this bottle before? First one I've found, which doesn't mean much I suppose.

I used to know a guy, really big in the early days of bottle collecting, 1950s - 60s, who specialized in Florida Waters. It was a very impressive collection and his displays at bottle shows were some of the best. That one looks un-common.

Hello;

Have dug these in Ottawa, not nearly as common as the Murray & Lanman ones though.
