Hello,

I sell dusty trinkets online and came across this Liberty Milk Co., Milk Bottle in pink. Stamped Buffalo, NY and a rendition of the Statue of Liberty on the reverse (which looks a little off to me) The others I see online have an "L" stamped on the bottom. This one is smooth. I picked it up for next to nothing so it's not the end of the world if it is just don't want sell a fake. I appreciate any help you can provide.

Many Thanks,

Rob

The pink color isn't as dark as depicted here.

First off Welcome to the forum and I appreciate your integrity. I don't see a recess for the milk cap so I'm thinking repro - its pretty though!

I had got one of these in a lot of bottles and sold it at the local flea market here in NH.

Mine had the L with a big dot inside the L it was a little darker of a pink color/almost orange-ish. I sold it for 20$. I am not sure if it was real or repo. I don't collect milks, and don't really know much about them.
