Hi Jim
Thanks very much for the response. I will continue to dig around and see if I can uncover any other information on this bottle but at first glance it appears to be quite rare.
Thanks again
Jeff
You're messages are a couple years old but hopefully you see this. I actually just picked up one of these off of ebay. It is very similar to the black one shown but does seem to be a different mold (a bit wider, squatter, with a thicker neck and lip). It is a very reddish amber (rather than black) and has the same embossing and same weird stepped base as the black one. I will post some pics in a day or two. Any chance the one I purchased is the same one you found on your property? I have no idea where mine was found (the seller didn't say) but it's interesting that a couple of the probably very few known examples were found so far apart (Philadelphia and Texas). Dew of the Alps sure seems to have reach a fairly wide distribution despite the bottles' apparent scarcity!
