I found that a Benjamin Burstein on May 3, 1923 filed with the city of St. Louis the fictitious name of Diamond Bottling Co. doing business at 2726-28 Stoddard St. He is listed as sole owner, In May of 1923 the bottling operation is located at 3057-59 Sheridan Avenue. In 1929 The Montrose Bottling Works is now listed as the occupants of the Sheridan address. From 1930 - 1932 a Jacob Burstein is listed as Sec/Treas. for Montrose. Jacob may have quite possibly been a relative of Benjamin.
I found no other references to Diamond after 1926, so all three bottles will date in the 1923-1926 timeframe.
The first two bottles are 6 1/2 oz and the third is a quart.
Love the quart size bottle!
Thanks iggy for the nice comments!
Thanks to all for the love it taps
I am partial to that first bottle.
