This may be more common than I'm hoping but I haven't been able to find any online. I was only able to find out a bit of information over Google describing the bottle, and the contents, (Ginger ale).

I dug this blob top "Aetna Bottling Co Concord, NH"...

I was just curious if this is a common soda or if it is a more rare bottle. Also any information about it, or the company is always appreciated. Always wanting to learn =). Thanks in advance - Dan

I absolutely love those Aetna bottles, I hope to someday get my hands on one with a working stopper. They are not too hard to find but not too common either and the closure makes it more desirable. The closure is called a Thatcher closure.
