Need some help

[spuere66]

This is a New York Bottling Co. ten pin bottle I have had for many years and have never been able to find out much about it. Could someone please let me know when it was made, scarcity, and value. I appreciate your help.

probably made in the 1890's, the company is not very scarce but the bottle seems to be scarce. Because it is in rough shape the value would not be to high...

Well its not as rough as the pictures make it look. Just some staining on the inside. the bottle has never been tumbled. About 10-15 years ago I had a hard core soda collector offer me two colbalt squats for it. So I have a feeling its value is some what higher than you are indicating. That is why I am trying to find out more about it. Thanks for they reply.

I imagine with that nice size chip in the lip and the other small chips it appears to have it's worth about 25% or less then retail. I'd say mabey $30-$50 if your lucky enough to find a buyer.

i have to agree with tigue and canyadigit.. it is a nice bottle but the chip on the lip alone will bring the price down alot. i see a ton of "flea" bites and haze, all of this will impact the price of this bottle. if the bottle was worth say $5,000 dollors and very rare the chip and haze would not matter much ,but in this case i'm afraid it does. very nice bottle and with a tumble and the right marketing you might see maybe $65.00 for it.~matt

shoulda traded the squats... probably was a local collector who valued it much higher then market value...
