I live pretty near the Canadian border, found this in a dump a while back. I can find plenty of information on the spring itself but none on the bottle or company that made it. Any info or date range suggestions would be much appreciated.

interesting bottle , i haven't seen this specific bottle before but I've looked thru many quebec bottles online over the years and is many in that style from that time period 1910's -20's

there is a quebec bottle site which might offer more info and some quebec focused collectors .

St Hyacinthe is a smaller city and not sure how big it would of been back then or how many bottles from that area are around

I don't have an account there but I searched the site and couldn't find anything about it but is likely someone there might have a better idea

Nice find! As RCO said that style of bottle was used for most soda bottles in Quebec around the 1910s and 20s, maybe a bit earlier. In my experience these tend to be quite collectible, more than you'd expect embossed sodas from that era to be, so yours is probably quite a good find. It's listed on Steve Lussier's site https://lesbouteilleduquebec.com/le...publicites/st-hyacinthe-la-cie-d-eau-mineral/ but he doesn't have a picture of it or any info about it. No idea about how common it might be, St Hyacinthe wasn't exactly a tiny place back in those days but that doesn't necessarily translate to rarity, especially if the St Hyacinthe dump has never been dug.
