Went back today & they moved some dirt around again. This time unearthing 3 more bottles. A Eckhardt & Becker brewing co. from Detroit crown top & McBride Earl & Pollard Aqua Quart Soda crown top & another Severa Cedar Rapids Iowa Medicine Bottle but a little different then my other one. Was hoping to find some older blob tops but only found some broken tops for blobs. LEON. P1040696.jpgP1040698.jpg

The druggist/pharmacist was named Kolumbus thus the pictorial of Columbus. A special order from the glass blower. The style of the bottle - the lip finish -- and the embossed liquid measurement gradations down each side of the front, place this as vintage post-1910 (likely closer to 1915). The World War 1 years were the end of the era for embossed druggists.

Thanks for the info. The broken Pepsi I found was dated around 1917 & the McBride soda quart bottle & E&B beer was a ABM. Did find older blob tops in there though. LEON.
