Welcome to the forum Johnno.

That is one nice ginger beer [] , they are a pretty good bottle too I think, I've seen them in the British bottle collecting magazines.
Think they date around the 1900's, hopefully an English member or two will be able to help with an exact date.

If the bottle is in undamaged condition would value at £2000 - £3000

VERY good bottle then [] , roughly how many of them do you think are out there in collections Grim? They are a classy looking bottle.

 

[grimdigger1]

hard to say how many ,,but would guess less than 50 ????

Grim Digger Hi, Ive always believed the uniqeness in this bottle is the double images, something the Victorians loved doing in that the bird becomes a fox and the anchor a rabbit. Are there other bottle designs that have this feature? Can you put a date on it?
