When viewing this bottle from the front it looks like your every day run of the mill Booz bottle and for the most part it is.
Most collectors do not desire large bubbles in glass as it is obvious for the most part that they detract the value and could burst at any time.
Sometimes the gaffers were having a hard time blowing bottles on certain days too hot too cold he may have been sick ect.ect.
The gaffer on this bottle must have been using bubble gum in his glass batch as this might just be one of the longest running bubbles on a
Booz bottle or any bottle for that matter.It starts out on the 1840 side of the roof gutter travels diagonally through the letters Philadelphia and then into Walnut Street.Before he ran out of breath he place one more 2 inch bubble shaped like a hockey stick on the other side of the bottle.The bottle is in near mint condition otherwise.It has become one of my favorites because of the large bubbles.The first picture is a front shot.
