New Pic of D.Rodney & Amber EHE Co. Jug

[dirtdiggerswife]

This Belfast Ginger is the hardest thing to get a good pic of, these pics don't do it justice. Ya reckon I should put food coloring or milk in it to make it show up better? Anyhow does any of my new friends know if it is common or rare?

Best way I find is to put a clear or aqua bottle on a window sill with a just rising sun or the sun at high noon to capture the embossing, there are a handful of companies that bottled "Belfast Ginger Ale" like Cantrell & Cochran. Ross and others. Most aren't all that valuable, but I'm not familiar with what you're describing...

Don't know what happened.Oh Well.

Here is the biggest bottle I have ever found!

Tough to photograph those ultra light bottles when they keep floatin' around like that. Is that what they call a "Puff"?

We have a rounded bottom Cantrell Cochrane "says see that each cork is branded" with nice bubbles. Dublin Belfast Ginger Ale.

That D. Rodney is a nice bottle, and I'm sure that NYDigger1(Mike) would be interested if it's for sale. I don't know anything about it, I believe NY had over 35,000 bottlers/brewers over the years...

The large amber bottle cleaned up nice, great color. There are a few different versions of the Cantrell & Cochrane's out there, many are common, but a few are not...

What's embossed on the back of the Rodney?

 

[NyDigger1]

epackage is right on the money, Is it for sale by any chance?

Sorry no bottles for sale, as these were my paw-in -laws pride and joy. He would have his crew wait around or send them to the store while he poked around if a piece of glass was uncovered. He owned a land clearing business in Savannah, GA..I love showing them off though! Thanks the back says Belfast Ginger Ale
