My prized possesion

[Tony14]

This is an unlisted blob top from a local brewery. It dates from 1900-1910 and held weiss beer. The listed version of this guy doesnt have the & sons embossed on it. Enjoy[]

[Tony14]

[capsoda]

Hey Tony, I thought it was on a shelf in the living room but it's boxed up and in storage.

I do have this John Graff that Steven sent me in it's place.
I will try to locate the bov it's in and post a pic.

both bottles are very nice. i have a graffs althought in very good shape. thats the first amber mug base i've seen.

 

[Andy4707]

Hey capsoda i think i have the same John Graf bottle.

 

[Tony14]

I think its the only fond du lac bottler who used mug bases. Even on the newer crown tops from this bottler have 10 sided mug bases. I found a shard from this bottle the week before i dug it and i told anrew that that bottle was my goal to dig then a week later i was digging by myself and i had a small tunnel going. I hit the top of it and this guy rolled out[] I couldnt believe it. Same day i dug my first ss coke.[]

 

[capsoda]

Hey Tony, When you dig a few more ss cokes I need one from up your way.
