Large brewery seltzer/siphon bottle

They were only around from 1916-1920 so dates to that Time frame. Not very long. LEON.

Maybe for a bar or soda fountain where there would be more than house-hold use. It would be too heavy to move easily when full.

That was what I picture too. Meant to go on a bar and stay there until empty?

Hi,
I have a few "normal" seltzer bottles from the hometown breweries which I collect. This one's a little different, very large 8" ×8". Very heavy like a seltzer, with a threaded top with I would assume takes a top like a seltzer.. Etched on front Says" this siphon remains the property of the Independent Brewering Co. Auburn NY" just a cool piece (in my eyes) wanted to share .

Perhaps an "under-counter" supply bottle for dispenser on counter/bar ?

Thanks all ! As I said, have a few "normal " seltzer but, this is different. Wish I could find a top to it. And...need to clean the inside. Don't think it can be tumbled, to darn big.
