This is a blob top I found in northern NY state last fall. The mold seams stop about 3 inches from the top. The bottom was sticking out of a steep muddy bank behind the site of an old railroad station that had been built about 1855. The depot is long gone, it was torn down by about 1920. I have looked all over for info. on this one but can't find anything. Embossing on front in slug plate: H. Hoffmann Hoboken, NJ. On the back it has: This Bottle Not To Be Sold. I thought maybe one of our NJ collectors might have seen this one. Pretty strange that it was found way up in NY, far from NJ. Any info. on this one? stonebottle
