Crown Bottling works Troy mo. Bottle

[Timelypicken]

I don’t buy bottle and keep them, but when I saw this I had to buy it. I live right next to Troy mo and I couldn’t ever find any bottle near me. I’m in love with this. I paid $2

Well spent two dollars. Wierd how local bottles are hard to find locally. I find stuff from all over the country. It is I guess a good part the Tri state area. New York, New Jersey, connecticut.

Very proud for you. What a bargain at two bucks. Great embossing. I have a thing about place names and Troy is one of my favorites, I guess because it has such an early ring to it like Sparta, Florence, etc. Here's one that I found in the creek years ago and it still remains one of my favorites. I've been approached about selling it because it's apparently pretty rare, but I like it too much. All we can do with money is spend it, but I can enjoy a bottle from now on. Fascinating to consider how it ended up in a little south Georgia town.

We have a Sparta and a Troy, up here in New York. Popular names at a time, sound kind of Roman to me. Nice picture and bottle.

I cleaned it up. I was wondering an age and what it held. I love all the bubbles

 

[ROBBYBOBBY64]

Just a guess but I am thinking as late as 1940s.

Hard to tell without a close-up of the lip but it looks BIM to me, in that case it would be around 1890s-1910s.

So 1890-1910
