As always appreciate your help. I still haven't been able to come up with anything on the Seltzer, I'm going to keep trying. I am in Chicago but nothing comes up about it. The slick is a little big to keep but I just can't toss it out.
Seltzers can be tougher to research if you're trying to find other examples of a specific one because they're typically much rarer than the other bottles a firm would have used, since they would have had large deposits on them and been distributed mostly to commercial establishments rather than homes. You may not be able to find definite proof that your bottle was used by the Hausburg brothers, with bottles that just use initials sometimes you just have to assume that it was used by whoever you can find with those initials near where it was found. Initials formatted like that are unlikely to have been used for anything other than two people with the same last name, and the Hausburgs were the only bottlers listed in your area on sodasandbeers whose names matched, so I would be very surprised if it was used by someone else.
