A guy brought this in to the show today. No one could identify where it was from. It shows up on North American Beers & Sodas, with origin unknown.
Any ideas/speculation?
Thanks,
Bill

I had one of those 20 years ago and had no luck IDing it (pre-internet) so I sold it. Not alot of embossing but a great looking bottle. Mine turned up in Central NY

Totally speculation, but the plate used on that bottle is similar to the G. Lomax bottle from Chicago. I'm not sure what show you were at but probably around Detroit ? I would start there with old business directories and/or tax recoprds and see if the name pops up. If not maybe it wasn't a soda/beer at all. Could it possibly be a med? I know there is a Brown & Co. Iron Bitters. I cant remember where it is from and then there is the Dr. Brown from N.Y.

Sweet bottle! The beveled slug plate is very distinctive!
