Ginger beers

[muddyfingers]

I found 2 ginger beer bottles today 1 is inprinted Arscott's Ginger Beer and the other has a painted label under a salt glaze that says The Fish & Ring Brand is the best. I just got them to day so I haven't taken pics yet, but I was curious if any one is familiar with them?

Man You gotta post some pics of the painted lable ginger beer. Would love to see that cause it's gotta be rare.[8|]

Here are my pics of my 2 new gingers. I dont want to be misleading, the left one has what I call a painted label its rugged looking not like a typical ginger bottle label. Either way they are pretty good finds to me, considering I dont know much about these bottles.

Very cool. A pictorial ginger is a good find anytime and I have never seen one with such a big stamp either. Only have a few that I dug and a fellow digger left to me before he past away.

The pictorial bottle is in fact a bottle for "velvet reviver " although some dodgy UK sellers on ebay call them ginger beers
They date 1900 - 1920 and are found from time to time
The other is a ginger beer dating 1890- 1900
