Amazing to think that this one quart store milk bottle for Roxbury Dairy Co. Inc., New York , with embossed ribbing on the neck, is one hundred years old! The bottle was made by Thatcher Glass Manufacturing Co and based on how this particular bottle was made, it has many of the hallmarks of older glass, e.g., air bubbles in this bottle, slight color of the glass. This milk bottle has lots of character and is perfect for the collector or someone that loves history. Or use it as an interesting home decor piece in your home, whether your style is shabby chic, farmhouse, country, man cave, bohemian, rustic, primitive or ????
