noticed this one appeared on ebay the other day , don't recall seeing it before . seller lists it as very rare but don't they all ?

bottle book says his name was actually " James Jellis " and that he operated in the early 1900's in Brantford Ontario then seems to disappear

embossed on bottle " J Jellis , trade mark , Brantford Ont " with a neat Wagon Wheel embossed in the centre

Its rare for sure. Listed in a book I have from 1975 as rare. First one I have ever seen .but machine crowns really don't sell for big money. too bad. I really think the next big collectible in bottles are the applied crowns they are well over a hundred years now.
