    Ruby glass bitters bottle .. Anybody know how old this is?

    The seam is fairly pronounced up to the base of the top. Bottle is 6 inches tall x 2 1/4 inches wide.

    It looks sort of amber in the photo, but it is really a ruby red.

    Says Wheaton NJ on the bottom.

    Thanks

    BINGO!! That is it! Didn't think it was too old. Found it at the ditch at edge of a dirt road after the rains came through this afternoon.
    Oh well, it makes a neat display piece anyway. Thanks for the quick ID daroofa!
