was looking thru some of my bottle books and a listing intrigued me and seemed worthy of some further research
the initial listing that caught my attention was in a Canadian bottle book from the 70's
here is the listing -
Bluebird - top crown cap , Colour -clear , height 7 1/2 , neck - crest of bird with top hat - BLUEBIRD , back same , bottom ring - trade mark reg 6 FL OZ , pat Mar 2 1927
then i looked thru some more recent bottle books and was 2 listings that mentioned bluebird , one was for Kist which appeared to be more recent and another was from Toronto Ontario and seemed to fit the dates
The Star Beverage co - ( Blue bird , hires ) 1931- 1941 , older book lists them as starting in 1914 , so they operated for a while in Toronto
but since I haven't actually seen a bluebird bottle from Toronto , I'm somewhat just trying to fill in the blanks here and figure out if one actually does exist or not and according to listing in original book which is very accurate one does
anyone seen this bottle or have any other info ?
