not sure which version he would of used first or exact age of either bottle but would be from the earlier years of his operation

There was a cool old glass stopper as well as a bottle which might have become my favorite that I am fairly sure is a P.A. Jackson that was manufactured in Collingwood Ontario, not to far away from were I found it. View attachment 224268
If you're interested in dating bottles you fine, know that the color of the one on the left is sun colored amythist. My understanding is the glass included magnesium to make it clear. It became scarce during WW1. It caused glass makes to find another way to turn glass clear. So sun colored amythist bottles probably date to before 1917.
