Hello, This is probably a question I should know the answer too! But I don't ! This bottle reads W.A French & Co. From Red Bank N.J. Also reads " not to be sold" And has a large " F " embossed on the base. Was this a soda bottle ? Or beer bottle ? Thanks for any info. Kevin....

Hey there Kev.. that's my forum for NJ bottles, thanks for the kind words! I personally collect most towns in Monmouth county but I'm always eager to see any NJ beer/soda.. that crowntop you posted is from around 1905 or so.. and looking over at my shelf I don't see a variant in that color, so you wanna trade something?

Hi Charlie, I would be willing to trade you since you don't have this variant This bottle is near perfect condition, It does have two minor scratches that I can photo for you to see if you want? Let me know what you have to offer as I am always glad to help friends add wanted bottles to their collection. ( I hope Jim don't also need this bottle) LOL !!! You have my e-mail, Just let me know and you can be the proud owner of this bottle. Thanks , Kevin....

Hi Charlie, Your not " AKA The Sheik" ? Hey there, just send me a picture or two of equal value bottles and were good to go. I am easy to get along with. If you have any Va. bottles that would be great, If not , Just offer a cool bottle and were all good !!! Thanks, Kevin...... Oh Yea !!! I did not see your bid on the auction yet ??
