I found this bottle in a creek near Worton, MD. It appears to be an amber champagne beer bottle, made by the Reed Glass Company. The body reads Mt. Carbon Brewery, which was a well-known coal area PA brewery. The bottom reads MT. CARBON BREWERY POTTSVILLE, PA and ONE QUART. There is the Reed Glass Co. "R in triangle" symbol, and the numbers (in order) "5" and "6" below the symbol. My best guess at how old it is based on my research is between 1933 and 1956, between the end of Prohibition and the closure of Reed Glass Company. I would love to hear from anyone who has an idea what kind of beer this bottle held, and more precise dating and value. I have not seen anything like this from Mount Carbon online, so I appreciate your help.
