fx350js Here is a nice VINTAGE milk bottle, an A.G. Smalley round embossed quart milk bottle or jar, in an EXTREMELY RARE AMBER color, embossed on base: A.G.S. & Co. 4 Patented April 5, 1898. There is no metal on the bottle, this was a dug bottle and the metal rusted away over the years. You could get a damaged clear Smalley and remove the metal to put on this bottle. I have collected milk bottles for over 45 years and I know of only 3 of these Smalley quart milk bottles that exist in this AMBER coloration.
Great for the collector of vintage EARLY Smalley Tintop tin top dairy farm cow milk bottle bottles Boston Mass MA MASSACHUSETTS N.Y. New York NY.
Condition: Dug bottle that was tumbled to remove the stain. Has some remaining light surface wear in spots and a chip on the inside of the lip and some tiny pings on the lip (see close up of lip above)- not as bad as I make it sound. I grade this one an 8 on a scale of 1 to 10. It looks great on the shelf.
