Saturday I decided to go bottle hunting in an area where I've found some pretty interesting stuff. Didn't find much this time but did find a couple of bottles, a marble and horseshoe. One of the bottles has a pretty cool company emblem on it and it cleaned up real nicely. It says Evers - Rehm Co. 419 - 421 - 423 E. 24th ST
New York.
Overall a pretty cool old bottle to add to the collection.
Sunday I hit a school playground and found a bunch of clad and a few other odds and ends...

Nice hunt and finds there! Looks like you had a good time, that's what counts and HH, Mike
 
Great Finds! Love that round bottom bottle.
 
What, no car to go along with the keys? Try digging deeper ;D
 
Cool bunch of finds fury!
I haven't found a complete set of keys yet.
Cool old bottle too.

Keep safe...
 
The Evers-Rehm bottle you found is from my great grandfather's company. Evers-Rehm moved to the address you have on the bottle in 1901. I have a photo of the building. C.D. Rehm Company, Columbia St.,
(one of the boroughs) New York was started in the mid 1800's.

Story goes that Evers-Rehm Company supplied the carbonated beverages to the Speakeasy's during probation.

They were both from Prussia and the Rehm part (my great grandfather) was Christoph Dietrick Rehm Sr. My grandfather, also Christoph D. Rehm, took over later and was the president of the NYC Carbonated Bottlers Association in 1938-39. The company was sold during WWII and the VA hospital portion of Belleview hospital now sits on that site. It and other manufacturing businesses were there because of the close proximity to the harbor. The harbor was filled in and the UN compound was put there.

yea that is a cool bottle and story!!!!!! MR TUFF
 
It's a possibility that "marble" could have come out of the bottle on the left side of your photo. Some old bottles used a marble for a stopper, hence the name "Pop" bottle.
