ACME Nursing Bottle found

[reptilekeeper]

Hi all I am naw to this site but Love it. I have just hit my first old farm site and started to dig in a virgin dump. ait started out to be early 1900 but as I got deeper I hit pay dirt at least 100 bottles all mid to early 1800. There are pontil inks, embossed medicines, whole crocks, flasks,clay pipes,old blob top beer and soads and on and on I could not belive it, and its still going. Anyway, I found a very unusual oval bottle that looks like it should lay flat with a bent cork top neck. The bottle is embossed with "ACME Nursing Bottle" with a star it seems to have an aplied lip and no seams. Any info would be great. I cant wait to get back there it is a gold mine of old bottles.
