Here is an unreported McLaughlin 5-gallon water bottle. Very early bottle from McLaughlin Glass Company-- marked 1921 with a cork closure. Embossing reads: (f) REGISTERED/ PENALTY FOR USE (r) OTHER THAN WATER; {f} MOUNTAIN/ SPRING/ 5 GAL/ WATER CO/ (f) THINK WHEN YOU DRINK. Water company identification is located on a paneled middle band. Bottle bottom is marked McL with a date code of 1 (which means 1921). See bottom detail [id=539376588] Other known Mountain Spring Water Company bottle is marked on a circular slug plate and dated later --1924 or 1925. Thanks to Bob McLaughlin for a McLaughlin refresher course before bottle purchase. |
