Thanks cobaltbot,
I guess cobalt Bromos should be your game too !
Yes, there are many shades of green, from teal blue to teal green, light, medium, and dark greens.
Some forest greens and even emerald greens !
I see you have some aqua colors. These are the earliest ! 1888 to approx. 1896.
These are bim, tooled top. Note the "square" lip
Do you actually have a clear one ? Or is that a very, very light aqua ?
Could you let me know what you find out about a 9" variety.

Thanks for the info! Would love to see the pic of one with an upside down label.

This is my favorite Bromo that I ever dug... melted in a fire, yet remained intact.

I dug one of the large ones years ago in Cincinnati , never kept it being I dug so many of the smaller ones . After seeing one again , I wish now I had kept the large version . I have never found another one since .

I figured it OUT !
Now maybe I can fix the flashing 12:00 on my Betamax.
Now is the pic of the same 5 bottles turned around showing
the labels.

Thanks for all the comments and pictures. Very interesting that you can learn something new every day if as it pertains to something that is considered common
