Any help identifing it would be appreciated. Idea of value would be nice too.

About 9 1/4 inches tall, a hair over 2 1/2 inch diameter bottom. The front reads " Elk Bottling Wks. H.R. Vanhoesn & Son Prop's" "Delhi N.Y." Hard to see at bottom front: "REGISTERED THIS BOTTLE NOT TO BE SOLD"
Glass has bubbles in it, no markings on bottom and had a wire top holder around neck.

I searched and can't find anything. HELP!
 

Come on now, someone out there has to know something about this bottle? :dontknow:
 

That style of bottle was typically used for beer. They date from about the 1880s to just after 1900. I know nothing about the bottler.
