I am new to this site. Can anyone give me information on this bottle with the original box? Any help is appreciated.

Hello and welcome to the forum. Tons of great and knowledgable folks here. Click the button "embed" in post and the pic will show up in your post. About your bottle, its a really nice bottle, stopper, labels, and box. GEESH ! The color should be peacok blue, which it looks like. That is an impressive bottle there. And plenty valuable. Great find. And once again thanks for sharing.

Thanks for the welcome and also how to get the picture to show, along with some information on the bottle. Do you have any idea what the year might be, and a rough idea of the value? I have done some collecting of local dairy bottles, but this is out of my league.

Hey and welcome to the forum Jeff. Beautiful example you have there and what ben said.[]

Oh I hate this part of the hobby, but here it goes. This is just a guess..no more. the bottle alone goes for $50 - $70 in mint condition. With original stopper, labels, box....woof maybe $110 or more. Understand that there are alot more knowledgable people here and thier insight might be better. That is just a ballpark. I have never seen the box and label. Could you post a real tight picture of bottle and labels. I have never seen them either. Thanks and what an awesome bottle.

Looking at your pic I'd say turn of the century.

That is a really beautiful bottle! I think Madpaddla has given you a good estimate - if anything, I think you might get more for your bottle because of the beautiful color of the glass, the condition which appears to be excellent, the original stopper, and the full labels plus the box.

Thanks to everyone for their input, especially Ben. I have attached a picture of the label, but I can't get any closer without focus issues.
