Hey guys, I can't find this bottle anywhere maybe im not looking hard enough. I found it at a bottle dump probably 1700s to 1950s. Any info would be greatly apprwciated!!

That is a great find! Thank you for showing it.

Presidential series commemorative bottle or maybe a glass. Presidential series because it has his tenure dates on it.

I can't find an example of it either, no matter what I use for a search parameter.

Probably commemorative, if so, there's a decent chance it was made an even 50 or 100 years after his presidency, death or some other important date. That might give you a lead on your search if no one can identify. Good luck and happy hunting.

Is there anything on the bottom?

Is that writing painted on?

If so, that process is called ACL, Applied Color Label, and was used mid 30's though the 50's.

The writing IS painted on, nothing on the bottom but am going to post a few more pictures of the other 2 bottle pieces I found. Both for Abraham Lincoln.

 

[Shark.tooth]

These are my Abrham Licoln bottle pieces as well. I'm assuming from the same time period?

Mick56 is correct.

You can also post this down in the Artifacts category in the "Bottles & Glass" sub forum but I suspect they will tell you the same thing.
