I got my first local flask from eBay recently... I saw a pint sized version at the Baltimore show, but stupidly I didn't buy it. I've seen a few of these quart flasks, so I don't think they're extremely rare. I know there's one without Orange embossed too. I bet there's a bunch of variants. Scheuer was a big grocery chain, and they had a lot of branches, including Passaic and Paterson too.

Mine is embossed in a slug plate "S. SCHEUER & SONS/ NEWARK/ ORANGE/ & / BLOOMFIELD/ N.J.". It also has "FULL QUART" in a fancy banner around the shoulder. It has a bit of sickness on the back, but the Chuckles cleaning method helping the inside a lot... [:)]
