Such common bottles but rarely found in colors other than clear, amber, and zapped purple. I dug the emerald green one,forum member Pitfinder dug the teal one and then I bought the zapped purple and the orange amber one. I just think they are kinda pretty. [;)] Kelley

PS. Fellow forum member Kharrar (Karl) has one of the most beautiful cobalt pumpkins I have ever seen! I won't give up on buying that one off him![:D][:D] Maybe he will see this and repost a pic.

I always love a color grouping - very nice! I especially like the emerald green - the only one I've ever seen.

We were diving for bottles this past weekend and a friend found this pumpkin seed flask. Has some tan fluid and is corked. It has an embossed wreath with the inscription PAP'S PICNICS. On the oval bottom is S. C. Co.
Any help in identifying manufacture and date would be appreciated.

That's a nice little flask.. it appears to be from around 1890'ish. Far as the base markings go, any chance it says S. G. Co. ?
(the difference between C and G can be very slight on embossed bottles)
If it is S G, there's still several possibilities:

"S.G.CO.................Several glass factories used this mark (possibly four or five), and here are three that I am certain actually did, at least on some items they produced:
Scranton Glass Company, Scranton, PA (1881-c.1895)
Southern Glass Company/Works, Louisville, KY (1877-c.1885)
Southern Glass Company, Vernon, CA (c.1916-1931)
Another possibility could be the Seattle Glass Company, Renton, WA (1905-1907), known for producing amber beers. These would be bottles mostly found in the northwestern area of the US. Please see next entry.
S. G. CO. ............. Yet ANOTHER possibility (actually a very strong probability, it seems) for the SGCO mark is pertaining to certain bottles (usually flasks or beer bottles in either amber or aqua) found in the Baltimore, Maryland and surrounding area. The S.G.Co. mark is usually on the heel or the base, and in some cases is accompanied by an anchor. Information uncovered by researcher Tod Von Mechow indicate that a little-known firm, the Severn Glass Company, Annapolis, MD (c.1897-1901), is almost certainly the user of the mark on these bottles from Baltimore. Several dozen different beer bottle variants from Baltimore and surrounding area are known with this mark.
S G CO within a segmented parallelogram..........probably Southern Glass Company, Vernon, CA (c.1916-1931)
S.G.CO.W...............Sydenham Glass Company, Wallaceburg, Ontario, Canada (1894-1913)
S.G.CO. with anchor.........probably Severn Glass COmpany, Annapolis, Maryland (c.1897-c.1901). Severn Glass Company was a successor to Annapolis Glass Works, originally incorporated May 12, 1885 in Annapolis. (Per information found by Tod von Mechow)."
