Souder and Chick Dairy Bottle

[Digging Up Bottles]

Hey guys. I would've posted this in Milk and Dairy, but it's looking a little dry (haha!..get it? []). Yeah, just a taste of my dry humor. Well, this Souder and Chick bottle is the only variant that I know of that's embossed and I've seen only one other example. The dairy was actually based right across the river in Brunswick, MD, and let me tell you, the prices for S&D bottles there are through the roof (like $75-$80 for applied labels). I've checked a bunch of milk bottle sites and none of them carry this bottle or its price. Anywho...here's the bottle.

Sorry for the poor pics...gotta get a new camera. This is a close-up to the Souder & Chick embossing.

According to the Maryland Milk List 5 other collectors have this dairy,some only look for one example while others look for any varients so it depends on whos looking.

Thanks Micah. I do have other variants of Souder and Chick, but they're all applied/painted labels. And the other bottle like mine was in a antique store in Frederick, MD, so I was curious to see if there were any else. Does the Maryland Milk List give price info or lists other embossed variants of Souder and Chick bottles?

It just list every dairy known in Md,but unfortunately does not have varients.You can figure out how rare a bottle is based on how many collectors have the bottle though.Each collector has an letter A,B,C etc next to dairy that corrosponds to the person that has that paticular dairy.
