Purple Pepper Sauce

I Think this is after 1900, but it may have been a late throw in with some 20's stuff. Dug this out of a brick lined privy today.

Has anyone found one before and have any information about it? (Brand, origin, date, etc)

Thanks!

Nice one! Those are scarce on my end of the state, and never dimpled-stimpled, usually slick cathetral type. Thanks for sharing.

Interesting pattern on that one... Cool.

Interesting indeed , I have not seen that style before . I have maybe seven different varieties of them . I never go to shows , so I do not see a lot of them at all in my neck of the woods .

It looks machine-made to me, very interesting. Must have been a very early ABM because everything else screams 19th century. I haven't seen a similar one before, very nice piece.

any base marks????

Hey Everybody! Here are a few more pictures. On closer inspection it looks like it might be applied top. These pictures were taken with it full of water which seems to show the color a bit better.

@ Mike: Nope, no base marks at all. Thanks for the congrats. :-D You'll probably end up with this one if you want it. It doesn't really fit in with my collection as cool as it is. The only problem with it is where one of the privy bricks put pressure on it. It still displays pretty well, you can just turn that panel toward the back.

Looks like there's a potstone in there.
