I was a a PA cellar hole recently and came across this bottle. I don't believe it's associated with the location but more likely dropped by a hunter sometime in the past. I figured you PA guys would help ID it and possibly it's age.

Also a Ciggarette case, possibly from the 60's??

Jeff, I believe is says "FILL BRIG CO. CARBONDALE PA."

Also the bottle doesn't sit flat, it seems to be pitched when upright as if the bottom was off slightly, there's also air bubbles in the glass itself.

Carbondale, not Carlisle. Probably 1930's or 1940's, but I am not familiar with that area.
 

it's either the 2 odd brick buildings off Railroad
or the Parking Lot off Main & the 2 buildings.
I am pretty sure since Belmont translates to main on the map

and I'd agree the earlier dates since not paper label
 

WOW!! You guys don't dissapoint, thanks! That's awesome, I knew it was older but wasn't expecting the 30's. I believe the cigeratte case and bottle were lost together as both were very close together.
 

cigarette case is a tuff call.
shape is odd but I had one recently with the clip like that one does
 

Jeff thanks for the link, I emailed that site and the guy checked out the pics and emailed me back...

Hi Eddie, Thanks for the photos. Your bottle is from around 1910 and is worth around $20."
