I've seen that name before...Louis Taussig. Wonder what else they were into? Nice bottle!!!

Nice Taussig! Years ago, we dug several applied top Battery St Taussig fifths and flasks in Rio. It was where the B of A is now. A couple of years back, we dug a hole in Dixon that held over 150 Taussigs, all the way from the Battery St ones to the late rectangulars. The entire Delta area is Taussig City.

Where The B of A is..That would have been the old Masonic Lodge that burned long ago..did you dig with someone local??

Nice shape on that bottle. It's got an Old West feel, reminds of sarsaparilla or something.

Good pick up, very nice example! Can't wait to find one

We just slammed a hole in a local town, and came close, but no cigar. There were two busted fifths in that pit, too. One was a nice light amber Walter's Bros and the other a clear Jockey Club. Oh well, that's diggin'. At least we scored an amber ink and some local pharmacies to bring home. The rest of the generics went back into the hole. I put all the busted glass in the bottom, too. It's nicely packed for the next poor sucker to find and redig. HAR!!
