Help with Bottle Information

[clayton3]

Bottle No. 1. From my internet research, I believe the Bottle marked G.A.K. (Gus A. Krenkle) is a soda bottle from Winnemucca, Nevada from circa 1900.
Thanks for any information on the bottle.

Your research is correct. According to the book Nevada History In Glass your bottle is from the Humbolt Soda Works that operated from 1887 to 1903. Your bottle seems to me to be the older variant and probably dates from the late 1880's into the 1890's. In the book it is listed as common but valued fairly high at $75 to $300. Lot's of info on this concern in the book if you can access it. Nice bottle.

If you're looking to part with that bottle, I'd be interested in it. Thanks. ~Mike
