Even though my passion these days is collecting St. Louis marked bottles, on occasion I will acquire a bottle that appeals to me. This Whistle bottle did just that, I like the fact that it has a square base to it and has a nice color. This bottle is from the Whistle Bottling Co. of Granite City, Illinois and has a base mark of CH 196. From what I gather this is bottle made by Graham Glass Co. at the Checotah, Oklahoma plant.

Nice looking bottle. The shape and color are very appealing and I can see why you picked it up.

Just recently came into possession of this Whistle Bottle. Says WHISTLE BOTTLING CO HOUSTON TEX on the bottom. (The N is reversed) Wondering if anyone can give me any information about the bottle or the logo. I'm wondering if the logo is C L Grigg's intitials. I'm assuming it was paper label? @bottle-bud
