Philadelphia Labeled Bottle




This is an interesting bottle in that it just emphasizes that the brewers and bottlers utilized whatever was at hand to put their product into. This is the Deucher and Kalban who bottled Philadelphia Lager while at 245 Second Street, San Francisco, CA in the mid 1880's. This specimen was found in the foothills of the gold county years ago, but I though it might ve of interest to those who have not previously seen it. An early survivor in fairly good condition.
