Can anyone give me the rarity and / or value of this one? I've never seen one before.

Last 2 pix. How about an age? I'm not good at deciphering the date codes. It's ABM and I'm guessing 1940s - 50s

The mark looks like '33 or maybe '43, there was crossover period. To me it looks like a modern incarnation of Blum's though. I'd go by the mark and not me.

what a great bottle ! I love glass ginger beers . the bottle may have been made in 1943 , but most ginger beers I have were made in the 1930s . its a toss up. anyway it is a cool , cool bottle.

Nice one, the pictorial embossing should add value.
