James Ray

Hey Deidre,

Thanks for showing us some photos of your bottles. I think you have some nice examples there, but I can't see em for beans... [8D] Could'ya bathe them in some natural light and showcase them, please? I'd particularly like to see the James Ray Ginger Ale.

"Russ Butler shows this amber quart flask embossed "W. H. Ray / SAVANNAH, GA." circa 1879-1880. Russ provided this info: William H. Ray was born in 1850 in Waterbury Connecticut. The eldest son of James Ray, an Irish grocer who moved to Savannah in 1858 and became one of the town's most successful bottlers. William Ray operated his grocery and liquor business on the east end of Bay Street on the edge of the river from 1879 to 1892. This is the only known example and first bottle that has turned up bearing William Ray's name." From.

From.

YALL MADE MY DAY WITH THE Moment THING! WAY COOL! I drove right past it today.Savannah has so many of them, but now I recognize the building it is by! OH I can't wait to take my hubby over there. SWEET

I live here and I cant tell you much about them, other than Savannah bottles will always be collectable, even if they are not rare.
