Lafayette bottling co.

[ROBBYBOBBY64]

I just acquired a new one. It is a 6 sided aqua artdeco Lafayette bottling co crowntop bottle. From New Britain, Conn. It is machine made but it is early. 11" tall 1 pint 12 ounces. Bottom base embossed L 25N, maybe 1925.

Have seen these before years ago along with the smaller sized ones, they are somewhat odd/ nothing else like them.

I thought you would have this one. Kind of art deco like, you are correct, they are something else. Rust on the mouth and neck tells me it once took a porcelain stopper.

RobbyBobby64, that is a very pretty and very crisply done hexagonal bottle! Thank you for sharing your nice photos of it.

Thanks for the compliments. I've seen plenty of Lafayette Acl's before. I've seen a Whistle beverage from Lafayette bottling co New Britain,Conn. I did see one like this before but not really interested at the time. I did think it was neat. When I saw this one nobody was bidding on it and so I did and won. Just over 11" tall it is a skyscraper on the shelf.

Great looking soda, Robby! Very unusual indeed. Gunner agrees.

Almost looks like a sauce bottle. I wasn't sure what it held at first. Soda or syrup? I figure soda as a default. Lafayette was soda. Gunner has great taste Mark.
