I just checked some of my other stuff and my J Otto and Sons med bottle is a W T and Co. As well.
They seem to have different initials on a couple of them, are these different states?
Awesome bottles, that Fogarty rocks! The pics of the bottling plant cistern/foundation are great, looks like a fascinating place to investigate. Any chance that you think there are old bottles/coins lurking in the dirt there?
The guy who owns the property told me and my buddy some crazy stories that his father told him about the history of the Sweeny plant! I hope too get the opportunity to dig there someday, I would think that the cisterns were kept free from trash so I doubt there would be bottles in there. However I do believe that there has to be a privy on the property somewhere!
It is a long cold winter for us northerners. We wouldn't mind hearing those stories, you know, just for something to do while we wait for the weather to warm up.
