I ony know of three of these but there is an amber one that is the same embosement that is before the common Schlotterbeck and foss one that you may see often.

there is a pretty common A G SCHOLOTTERBECK & CO POrTLAND, Me. (AMBER) too.

Yours I dont think I have seen before. Nice one.

This one my dad gave me for Christmas. He dug this one when he was a kid in about 1969

 

[MaineMtnDigger]

like I said the common one is the Schlotterbeck and Foss one that is from the 1890-1915. This one has your standard 1890 junck sript stlye while this one has the bold embosement and is before the the companys joined together.

Nice bottles!

I can't really make out the Troy NY bottle, what is it?

 

[MaineMtnDigger]

this one is the common one that every one sees and associats with early verson one

Ah, a W.E. Hagan & Co, apparently it held a hair coloring agent.

Seems like a pretty tough bottle your father was nice to give it to you!

[MaineMtnDigger]

I told him if he ever was going to sell it then ill buy it from him so since he was moving he didnt want it to get stuffed in a box some where and he knew I wanted it it said here you go.

This one is one I picked up at a flee market in town for only 10$. This might not peak any one intrest but here in Maine Colored bottles from the State of Maine are very few and somtimes hard to come by. This one not rare but still worth more then the 10$ I paid for it by far.
