Hey David, That is a nice blown soda bottle. gotta love the crudeness. The circle around the lettering is from a slug plate mold. It was cheaper to have a slug made than a special mold that could only produce one brand.

Hmmmm that cloudiness looks like a tumbled bottle and the "copper shot" a copper tumbling bead..... occasionally I have them lodge in a open bubble.... [:mad:] Hate when that happens! Just a thought..... Taz

Tanks Taz!
That explains alot. I was wondering why there was no patina on the shot. Would tumbling also explain the waxy texture?

The "P" standing alone as it is may be trademark for
