Folks, I would appreciate any help in determining whether this Baby Face Milk from Hellertown, Pa is real or a reproduction. The woman I purchased it from remembered if from the early 60's but you know how that can go......

Here is some of the embossing along the bottom. There is a Keystone symbol at the bottom which would be consistent with PA?

There were a lot of cobalt reproductions that said Brookfield but I don't know if there was an actual dairy by that name. Yours doesn't look lake a fake and the repros I don't think stated origin.

I'm with Cow's opinion.. no sense making a clear repro when you can make a pretty blue one! Give 'em a call, the phone number is right on the bottle..[;)]

Thanks, I apparently must have typed in Brookefield in the forum search, as now when I search Brookfield Baby Face Milk, it pulls up a gazillion forum responses on this subject.[:mad:]

From reviewing them I do believe this to be real, as it's clear, a half pint, has the city and state, and then the small keystone. With that being said, if anyone has a more seasoned opinion I would appreciate it.
