Mistake Bottles

That's just crazy,...(but cool!)...

I too have a bottle with an upside-down slug plate.

Wouldn't somebody at the glass house have noticed that kind of mistake before they cranked out a gross of them?
I wonder if when you ordered a gross of bottles, it wasn't too unusual to find one or two of them had an upside-down slug-plate stamp.

Has anybody seen a bottle with a crooked slug-plate stamp, i.e. a round slug plate that was skewed by somewhere more than 0 and less than 180 degrees? I can't remember ever seeing one. Did glass houses have some mechanism to prevent that from happening?

I have a couple whose slugplates seem slightly skewed, but it's hard to tell if they were made that way or not..

Far as upside down ones go, it was probably something that was not addressed at the glass house until the end of the day.. I bet lots of gaffers and mold boys couldn't even read.. anyway it was their quota on the line, they got paid by the bottle.. there was little incentive to deactivate a mold and make the correction once they got it going..

Mysterious Pain Ease

Supposed to read... A Scotch Remedy

Scoth = v. To clothe or cover up

Kinda cool mistake [8D]

Isn't that what it actually did? Just cover up the pain of the injury and not cure anything?

As for the upside down that was a dispenser bottle. Well, I have know idea really but there were bottles made that way sometimes.

Here's a picture of a Groves tasteless chill tonic in which the word "prepared" is spelled "prerared". Not worth much but since I dug this up..made it special to me.
