Well Hello Again!
I posted the previous question about the Hiram Wheaton Seltzer Bottle and, after trying to make sure I had enough detail in the last one, it made me think about this bottle that confuses me! Don't ya love newbies like me? LOL!
Anyway...This appears to be a milk bottle of some sort but it is definitely a BIM (See? I learned from your site!) It is a clear glass bottle with seams that go up the sides to the start of the neck and stop. The neck and top seem to be a separate piece added on in the process and it has a bale wire handle (wood) attached to the two glass hoops on the neck.
The neck has very crisp embossing on each side..."Patent Applied For" on one side and, this is what gets me...THE NJVJSON WETSKOPE COMPANY" on the other. But, please note, the first "E" in "WETSKOPE" is backwards!!!
The bottle is fairly clean with no apparent cracks or chips but MANY bubbles in the glass that really give it character! It measures 9 1/4" tall with a 4 7/8" base. The mouth is about 1 3/4" in diameter with a 1 1/8" opening.
There are no other markings anywhere on this bottle and I have had it for quite a while without a clue as to what it is, where it came from or, whether it has any actual value.
Once again, I've attached a couple of pictures and I'm hoping somebody may be able to tell me something good! ;)
Thanks again for your time and attention!
