    Hey everybody I dug this flask shaped bottle about 2 years agoin New Jersey and haven't been able to id it any help would be much appreciated...It measures 6 1/2 inches tall and about 3 1/4 inches wide, at it widest point at the shoulder and 1 3/8 inches thick, clear glass with an aqua/green tint...its embossed 154 AMSTERDAM AVE
    S.W. COR
    67TH ST
    NEW YORK
    The slug plate on the bottom reads HONEST MEASURE. The mold line appears to go slightly past the shoulder but it's alittle hard to tell because theres lots of twist marks going up the neck. The botttle is pretty much in mint condition. The only thing I do know is Amsterdam got it's name in 1890 so it must have been made post 1890. Other than that its the first one ive run across...again any help would be much appreciated, Thanks all.
