Pricy but what are your thoughts other than that.EBAYI've heard of a London also but can't seam to find any branch history like Warners.Have you or anyone found any? I'm curios about the history.

I looks ABM from the pictures.

Definitely not as common as the Baltimore bottles but not all that rare, I think I paid about that much for both of mine together. I've only seen ABM and I have a 2&1/2" like the one on ebay with TORONTO above ONT. and a four inch with TORONTO ONT. all on one line. I think I saw a 2&1/2 that also had TORONTO ONT. all on one line. I have heard rumors of a possible London bottle but have never seen one. Need to do more research into if that is a possibility and into when operations began in Toronto, and if they made larger sizes. Thanks Eric for the heads up.

No problem, I'm getting hooked anyway.Here's something from 1918, no Toronto or London.

I found a couple more. One from 1917 lists Denver also and this next on is from 1919, lists Toronto but no Denver either. I guess the Denver branch closed. It does add New Orleans though.There is also a lug cap on ebay now. 12cm (about 4½") Toronto Ont, one line.http://www.ebay.com/itm/B...ONTO-ONT-/111116422596[attachment=Clipboard01.jpg]

From 1922 there's no New Orleans listed.None of the adds prove anything to me or say when the bottles started being marked for the Toronto market or maybe being made in Canada though.[attachment=Clipboard01.jpg]
