    This bottle was dug in the 1980s at the old Myrtle Ave dump in Jacksonville, Fla by the late Edgar Masters, one of Jax' most successful diggers. He then sold/traded the bottle to his cousin, Warren Masters, a long time collector. I was fortunate enough to acquire this bottle from the estate of Warren and I've had it for about 10 years now. The newspaper ad is from 1892. I believe this is an early variant because of the "blob" type top. If this is incorrect, please advise.

      It could be from the period of the ad.
