Not sure about this one but I am pretty sure I have dug a milk glass example in the past. Is there a side embossed milk glass bottle from this company? Any history would be appreciated.

I got this one at an estate sale for $1. it seems like a nice amber embossed bottle from Mass.

I have a nice Metcalf bottle, it's cylindrical, about 8" tall, embossed Metcalf and sons on the bottom....but the neat part is that it has struck out embossing on the cyl...you can make out the Metcalf and Boston, but not the med it held..
It too is the same color of amber.

I did have a nice square Metcalf, but the metcalf name was on a banner that went from small to large...it was cool as heck...till one day I looked at it and it had a huge crack...I think the sun did it..so now any bottle I care about does NOT see sunlight for more than a minute.

Good deal for a buck!

Ooh, I have a weak spot for Metcalf bottles, and that's definitely a nicer one. Good find!
