Joe Butler & Cos / Registered / Trade Boxton Mark / Mount Morgan / Horehound & Ginger Beer. No base mark. Aerated Water Lamont Ledge-mouth / Bullet stopper type. Spun on type lip. Pale Amethyst. 26 oz. 257 mm. 1900s-1910s
Excellent. Nice natural sun-coloured Lamont in large size. The type of glass full of fine bubbles and whittling tends to make this bottle look a little dull, although there is some light internal haze. There are also fine scratches over most of the body. On the back is a fractured air bubble that has discoloured measuring 12 x 5 mm. There is a little surface bruise on the right hand side seam line (7 x 2 mm) and a small shallow chip under the front base (10 x 4 mm and less than 1 mm deep). Overall a great looking example of this unusual bottle. Grade: 8 Estimate: $75 - 100
