I finally found a milk!

[Xaquin]

I was beginning to think people in southern Maryland only drank unmarked pints. Turns out they only drink that 99.99% of the time lol

I saw several bottles on a part of the shore I couldn't get to, so I went farther down river to a place I could get to! Only bottle I saw (it was hell getting it out) was what I thought was a wine bottle. Then when I saw the mouth I knew what I had =)

ChesTnut Farms Dairy Chevy Chase Washington DC Quart

it claims to be "safe milk for babies!"

which is good because you shouldn't give babies dangerous milk.

anyone know if they're collectable or a date range or anything?

I like it a lot =)

Sure it's collectible. If you like it that's the main thing. You may find others like it also and that would be a bonus. Nice find.

Looks as though this bottle is from 1934 (looking at the date on the valve mark on the bottom)

3E4

also, an mTc on the heel is the Thatcher Mfg. Co.

Very common. $1

But a common milk is still better then no milk at all. And if you like it, that is all that really matters. I probably have 20-30 of them just for the fact that I cant sell them and have a hard time just throwing them out. Same with Farmer's and Western MD Dairy.
