Cool. From what I've read of Mitchell & Fletcher, they did seem to be a gourmet importer.

I don't have a doubt that it's applied, but a shot from the side of the seal would tell for sure.

Here's a side shot of the seal...

That is a great looking bottle. That lip is awesome and the embossing is very nice. Any more bottles from there?

Olive oil bottle

Do you have or seen the Dark Olive glass version ? I live in the Philadelphia area and dug a dump in Haverford. I have some where several dark green versions of this. Any idea of its value ?

Went back yesterday and there were 2 broken stoneware ginger beers, a broken blob top, and a slick small that the workers had discarded. None in good enough shape to keep. But I drove past the site a few minutes ago and they were digging again today.

I haven't seen the dark version. This was a very lucky pick. The only other intact olive oil I've dug was also pale green. See pic below...
