here is what turns up on google.
it seems to be a fairly common bottle from the 1890's. worth 10-15 dollars or so.
i like horseradish bottles, wish i would find one like that!!.

Hey Taz,

Is this the same D.H.GEER & SONS you have? "STUMP OF THE WORLD" TRADE MARK BOSTON,MASS

Found out Stump of the World is a very old variety of tomato so guess this was probably a very early ketchup. One of the few ketchups in my collection. [][]

Hi Cliff, Nope, not... lol.. mine is a three sided cathedral type. I thought it was a misprint but now think another generation of Geers. Taz
