Except for the one on ebay and some articles that mention a connection with the construction, I got nothing.
There was an article about a platform from 1903, maybe it was a special edition for that moment. Maybe an anniversary piece also but what year and for what occasion?


This is the one from ebay.. I was the lucky winner

here's what I found

VILLAGE OF BELLEVUE

In June of 1854, the Village of Suspension Bridge (Bellevue) was incorporated. The first village president was Colonel John Fisk. He was an official of the Bellevue Land Company. This village grew from a development around the first suspension bridge. This village was originally known as Bellevue. The Canadian village that developed at the opposite end of this bridge was known as the Village of Elgin.

The Village of Bellevue was commonly known as “Suspension Bridge†or simply “Bridgeâ€. As early as 1891, studies were commissioned to the idea of merging the villages of Bellevue and Niagara Falls.


So Maybe this is their first bottle from 1903??

You found it John, great catch on the Bellevue connection. Niagara Dairy Co. was on Bath Ave., which you can see in your Google map link, great milk for sure...
