i found this at a yard sale on the weekend , not sure of the exact term or type for this sort of bottle . but it does appear to be made of porcelain
it caught my attention at the yard sale because it was from the town of Burk's Falls which is rather small and maybe 1000 people . don't see that many items from the town , this features a street scene of the old downtown
but it appears to be some sort of souvenir item that would of likely been sold in gift shops or those indian trading posts which used to be common but mostly been closed when the highway was expanded thru that area
I'm not sure how old it is ? might be from the 70's or 80's ? but could be older or newer , not really sure . it has a marking on the bottom which seems to indicate it was made in Canada .
its also rather small , maybe 3 " tall and 2 1/2 " wide . I'm not sure if it has much retail value at this point , I'd have to assume its at least worth something , I only paid 25 cents for it
