That's a nice find
 

I think the 'not to be sold' brings it into the 1880s, most of the tall blobs had that on the backs too... That's a really cool find!! Been a few years since I found some good older glass like that! Congrats, and hope you look and find more there!!!

Yup I agree. Just wanted to see since the older soda's are iron-pontiled (which yours is not). Used to dig a lot of this type of soda's in privies. There are many local varieties and the most common color is aqua like yours. Congrats on a nice find.
 

That is a sweet one!

Nice bottle, funny, last week while I was mixing in potting soil to my garden soil I saw a "rock" come out of the Miracle Gro Potting Soil bag and picked it up to discover it was a stopper for a blob type beer or possibly a soda bottle. It would be nice to find a bottle to match the top up with! :) Looks like that company must make their Potting soil from Philly trash. :)

Love those aqua blobs and how neat that just wandering around in the woods you found such a neat bottle.
