Picked this up at the flea market today...Really crude tooled top with lots of tool marks. I'm thinking its an old one.....Any New York milkers ever see this one?
enjoy

You're lucky it doesn't say W H Johnson, or else I'd be on my way to confiscate it.. that's my dad's name, and he's a native New Yorker! Beautiful milk bottle!!!

It has C 3 on the bottom
Nothing else on the bottle accept whats in the slugplate.
I thought early 1900s by the top and figured it was a good one
I wonder about its rarity and value? Cause it aint no coalcracker milk
