I have found this old 7.75" tall clear glass Bottle. It is embossed with the name "E. Provo, Salem Mass." and has a witch flying on a broom in the center. The word "Registered" is also embossed below the witch. This bottle has a seam running through the center. I did a bunch of searching but have seen none like it. Any Ideas?
The bottom is blank, not flat slightly concave.
"J. Edward Hennessy trade mark Salem Mass registered, also has a picture of a Witch riding a broom"
I found a purple one on Worthpoint.
This is the title:
"WITCH CITY SALEM MASS PURPLE SODA BOTTLE EMBOSSED WITCH"
BIM crown top embossed soda bottle from J. Edward Hennessy from Salem, Mass. I'd say the bottle is from the 1900-1915 era. Embossed in the slug plate is a witch riding a broom and holding a trident (?). I've never seen one of these bottles before and the couple of Google searches I did came up with nothing on this bottler or the bottle.
