A nifty late throw, and a local pre-prohibition beer cap!

Great cap and a very cool bottle! What a way to find them both. I like the cap best, you NEVER see caps that early! And I think it's funny, because the Orange Brewery in Orange NJ used the words "purity" and "strength" as their trademark!

Amazingly late throw Stephen, very cool embossing on the Bragg's...Cool cap too. nice finds for sure.

Nice Bragg's, I would have been expecting a pontil, too. Any day you can pull a nice, gloppy Civil War-era bottle out of a 20s dump is a good day.

Wicked blister you got there, but it looks like it was worth it [] I pinched my finger at work about a month ago and got a blood blister the size of a grape. I didn't find any bottles, either, so it just p*ssed me off [] ~Jim

That pre-pro cap is worth some good money. I'm guessing hundreds. I've got a pre-pro Leisy cap from the Cleveland, Ohio brewery, and got some good offers for it. Still have it.

This pre-pro pocket mirror pictured below from the Leisy in Peoria sold cheap for a Buy-It-Now of under $30 last month. I think the seller made a huge mistake with the buy it now. Should have had an auction. Another (but different) pre-pro Leisy pocket mirror sold for $350 last month on ebay.
