Winter Finds #1 2020

 

A recent online ad yielded a bunch of dug local sodas. The best had been sold off, but a few were still decent finds. One interesting soda was embossed Aetna on the base. This was the Aetna Bottle & Stopper Co. from Providence.







I spotted a nice Caswell Hazard & Co. NY Newport cobalt medicine in an unlisted size on ebay. It wasn't cheap but neither is getting all the different cobalt sizes!




A friend had a pretty exciting Indian Sebago Providence, RI etched wine bottle. I had only known it existed from a shard so it was nice to finally see a whole one!




The same friend also had a Valley Bottling Works Riverpoint, RI etched blob. No bottles from this company are listed, but this is the third variant known!

picture coming soon!


He also had a variant of the Providence Wine Co. Providence, RI blob.
