Found this on my street where they are doing repairs on the water main. My side walk is one big pile of dirt, but hey, I pulled this out of the pile, as the luck of the Irish would have it. It is 8 x 2 1/2 inches.
It says horozontally on the front "C.C.S. & M. CO. / 270 TO 274 ROYAL ST. / NEW ORLEANS/ THIS BOTTLE IS NEVER SOLD"
"This bottle is never sold!" I got quite a kick out of that! What does it mean? Like a deposit or something?
The bottom of the bottle has a crescent, which might be a reference to this being the "crescent city."
The seam stops well before the neck and the the look of the "head" just looks so odd that I thought it might belong on this forum and not the post-1900 forum.
