Where did you get that "torpedo"? Nice bottle.

 

[Ninjafossils]

Yeah. If I'm not mistaken, it is a cork top.

Hello RF,

Welcome to these parts, and thanks for showing us your round bottom soda. Unfortunately, with no embossing, and what looks like a flash in the backside of the finish, not much in the value department. Feel around on the inside of the neck for any features.

Probably British, TOCish for dating purposes. Here's some good history of the form from the late Mr. Odell:Round Bottom Sodas

Well it may not actually be "torpedo"... May be just a round bottom soda

Hey Surf, don't the torpedos have a sharper bottom and date from an earlier time period?

Scuba diving at an old water amusement park that no longer exists - My metal detector picked up the base and while trying to uncover the base I set my other hand directly on the bottle that was under a few inches of soot.....

Value or not still a Sweet find!!

maybe 8 bucks in a shop. The base is not a base, they did not make bases for torps

They did, however, make stands for torpedoes / Hamiltons:

Interesting info. I did not know about stands for these bottles existed. I've got a few of those bottles in a box but no stands. I guess I will start looking for one to display with a bottle in it. Thanks.
