ebert brothers bottle

[daveywaterdog]

hello there. I recently found a bottle on a dig that I'm having trouble finding information about. It is about the size of a standard wine bottle. Clear glass, and has embossed on the front is "Ebert Bros. Bottling Co. Plymouth Ind. " I have read that they bottles for Pepsi for awhile around the twenties. But other than that nothing. Hopefully someone can help

I found one reference to them in a book of reports Indiana State Board of Health 1910 and it has them listed for bottle of orange cider and strawberry.

Hi, I also found an ebert glass bottle but it's about the size of a glass root beer bottle. I found it at the bottom of a lake. Just thought I'd share that
