Ashgrove Dairy - Bracebridge Ontario milk jug found swimming

[RCO]

if you saw my other post I found another milk jug when swimming , this one I've never seen before but it is from my local area . not sure of its exact year but appears this dairy operated in 20's and 30's maybe later but one of the earlier dairies in this area . it appears to have been located along the muskoka river in Bracebridge Ontario .

it must be relatively uncommon to find if I've never seen one before and its from my area . although considering the damage I doubt it would ever be worth much but a neat example of one perhaps .

some close up pictures show the embossing " ashgrove dairy and pasteurized " also a 2 barely visible between ash and dairy .

Bowling pin milk, nice! Those are pretty early, I don't think they were used much after the 20s. Shame about the damage, hopefully there's a whole one waiting out there.

not sure how rare it be to find this one , as mentioned never really seen or heard of it before but thinking its not very common

but its listed in the Ontario mlik book under farmers last name not ashgrove dairy , gives dates starting 1918 - 30's

our area is mostly known for white pine and maple trees , so ashgrove might seem out of place but there is ash tree's here and would imagine there was once some along the river there
