Picked up this today at an antique mall. Didn't figure I could go wrong at $2.00. Of course, I guess it could be worth only a nickel. Clear, tooled crown top and mint aside from the inside staining. Any good? [attachment=fargo.JPG][attachment=fargo1.JPG]

all of these towns are not real big so id say there were not a lot made of each town. I had been collecting bottles in ohio for 18 years and never saw one.

sandchip Here's a little info I found on ( Ashtabula ) Fargo Mineral Springs ... "Ashtabula began operations in 1903 as Fargo Mineral Springs Company. In 1927, the Painesville Coca-Cola Bottling Company absorbed the Fargo firm. Fred J. Knuebel purchased the plant in 1931 and assumed operational control in 1932."
