Super crude J. Tweddlel r soda

[stinger haut]

Thanks guys, its the crudest soda I have ever owned that was completely intact.
I don't know its worth. I have tried doing some research on it, but nothing other than J Tweedle is well known for his sodas. I must have about 8 different ones. His father was a manufacturer of sodas and ales at the time he was in business.
Its definitely a keeper.
I just ran it for 2 days on 1200 cutting oxide and that was enough for me.
My wife has the green light on buying sodas and a dinner of her choice coming to her.

Stinger,

I think that backwards L is really a backwards J and your bottle Is J. Tweedle Jr's. Very nice soda though.

That's a beauty! Enough to make your heart skip a beat or two. I've always been a soda/mineral water person myself.

Chris, I looked the bottle and your right. It is a backward J.
Thanks,
Stinger

Thank you for your complment on my wife's purchase.
I have collected figural bitters and food related bottles in the past.
My wife and I have been collecting pontiled sodas & minerals for about 10 years now. We like the many different shapes, colors and embossing of the old sodas & minerals.
My job required me to travel around the country every year, so I was able to sometimes attend shows in the midwest and east coast. I also had many chances to go privy digging over the years.
I have retired back home to Hawaii and one of my hobbies now is to clean all the bottles that I have dug.

Hi Rich, your right about the backwards J.
My wife paid around that amount for it, so that is good.
We love its crudity and its a keeper for us.
Its unlike any of our other Tweedles.
Thanks for info.

Hey Pono, Looks like she did OK to me. Maybe you should let her do the purchasing.[]

Hey Cap,
This time, your WRONG!!!! Yeah the truth does hurt. However, I want to have some retirement money to last until I die, so if my wife were to do the buying, we would be bottle rich, but cash poor.
I am amazed that the bottle isn't worth more. I have seen the regular Tweedles go for more and you see them a lot on the auctions.
I haven't seen these too often (only one other time).
But, whatever its worth, its going to stay in our collection anyway.
