Discovered a c.1890s dumpsite and dug this blob-top.

The plug is the same brass loop with stopper that I have found on other Hutchinsons. I'll get a closer shot of it when I get home this evening. Incidentally, the last name on this bottle is spelled with a "c" nacel, instead of the "g" for nagel, for some reason.

Hey Cy,

I wanna see closeups of this "brass plug," please.

Frank Spitznagel had some interesting closures on his bottles, and was an inventor, to boot: Patent US350899 - Nag-el - Google Patents ***** Patent US701956 - Bottle-washing machine. - Google Patents
