Anyone ever seen this female WW2 Golfer Milk bottle

[digger mcdirt]

I have collected West Tenn Milks for 30 + years and never knew this was out there. I told a friend who had collected West Tenn bottles for 50 years about it but he said he had never heard of it either. It is dated 1942 on the bottom. It has a little fade on some letters but it's readable . The ACl of the lady is minty. Anyone ever seen one before? It came out of a local estate today. Funny one has never popped up before . Must have been short lved. bob

Thanks I would say you are right. I never thought of her but she was very famous during the era of the Milk. Sure must have been a short run bottle as none have ever popped up before. bob
