[BCMA] Bottle identification

[Moderated BCMA subscriber listserv.]

Hey, Kathleen,

 

We have had the suggestion of a beer bottle, but I've checked with a local
long-timer who worked at the Brewery from day one, and he says they never
produced bottles this size.  Of course, there's no indication that this is a
local bottle - the lady who brought it in found it ata grage sale!

Tammy:  Given the brewery with a large sasquatch in front of it is smack in
your town, perhaps it is an early beer bottle???

Hello, everyone,

 

A local resident brought in this bottle yesterday, wondering if we could
tell her anything about it.  Since I am anything but an expert on bottles, I
couldn't, so I'm wondering if anyone out there can.  It's 11 inches tall and
4.5 inches in diameter, and the marks on the bottom read "4601GB"  There is
also a symbol that looks like two ovals intersecting at right angles, with
the numbers 2 to the left of it, 6 on the right, and 2 underneath.

 



 

Thanks!

 

Tammy
