Hello Sticks and welcome to the basement of treasurenet. Pepper sauce bottles are highly collectable pcs. Please show us some pictures of the bottle in natural light, and get a shot of the bottom of the bottle while you're at it. As relicdude said, we are looking forward to seeing it.

The one in the middle is a cathedral pepper sauce circa 1875.

That's a nice cathedral bass. Or is like this one that doesn't have a round bottom and has a rather crude applied lip.

will have to check it's at my buddy's house. He got it cleaning out a rental someone bounced on. Should I offer to buy it and if so what do I offer? Pretty sure lip is perfectly round, but there is no "K" on bottom.

Nice one. And thanks bass it's my favorite bottle I have dug.i think the rounded bottom on these six sided cathedrals isnewer then my six sided. Bass does yours have a seem going through the bottom for a hinge mold? Beautiful bottles none the less

No mine does not. Thats why i wanted to see the bottom of Stick's bottle. I think mine is newer than the 2 of yours. Mine was made by Illinois Glass Co.
