Circa 1850-1860 Pontiled Savannah Soda or Mineral Water

Here's a nice southern soda. This is the "& Co" variant of the Young eagle bottle. Nice crudity and micro-bubbles. It has an applied blob and a weak but present pontil scar. This bottle typically sells for $400-800 at auction.

Embossed: PHILIP YOUMG / & CO / SAVANNAH / GA. // (left facing Eagle over shield with banners)

Height:  7 5/8"  
Color: emerald teal green

Condition: excellent - perfect structurally with no dings, chips, bruises or nicks. This was lightly polish cleaned and only slight dullness remains. There is a large potstone near the bottom but it's totally stable and adds to the crude character.

Reference Number:  PL21

Price: $440
