William Kayser Philly Hutch Help

[PhilaJDH]

Anyone have any info on this Philly hutch?

I got nothing. I like the tall oval slug plate, though - that's different. I also know that PA has more hutch variants than any other state. Not much new there either. Cool bottle.

I can't comment on the rarity because Philly has about a million friggin' bottles, but I can tell you I love hutchs and I wish it was a tombstone slugplate.....Jim

The amount of bottles in this area are insane!

I also stumbled across this: http://www.ebay.ca/itm/330650338567 Looks like he had blobs as well. I'm guessing that it's not that valuable. Unless it was to a collector who specifically collected Kayser bottles.
