Hi everyone, i found this interesting bottle in a thrift shop in the Netherlands and after photo googling it i came across this article. Does anyone know this bottle and is it Teddy Roosevelt? It has a stopper in it with the name Catz & Zn Pekela Groningen (Dutch) but i don't know if the stopper is original. Here is the article: https://www.fohbc.org/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/TheodoreRooseveltBottled.pdf

According to the Brooklyn Museum, yes, that is a Theodore Roosevelt bottle, circa 1909.
 
oke cool, but i asume that the stopper does not belong to the bottle then, because the bottle is made in america and the stopper is dutch?

I would assume that as well. There is very little information online about either the bottle or the stopper, and the only reference I could find to the stopper showed it atop a bottle of "Pomeranian Gin" which looked nothing like Roosevelt.
