Brewer/Business Name: Narragansett Brewing Co., Cranston, Rhode Island
Manufacturer/Plant: Unknown
Date of manufacture: Prohibition
Contents/Type: n/a
Dimensions: 9-1/2 h.
Comments/description: Note the Cranston attribution on this Prohibition cereal beverage bottle; prior to this the brewery listed their location as Providence. Also note the lack of the Lithographers Union seal at bottom center. Another feature that distinguishes this label from a similar one we are offering is the inclusion of the Mass. license number L-4 below the patent info and SOLE DISPENSER text at bottom center. Arguably scarcer than the soda bottles the brewer produced to stay afloat during Prohibition. Date punched 8-21-28. Tears, wear, loss. Nice Narragansett embossing on the shoulder. All items are original unless otherwise noted. For questions, feedback, or to sell a similar item contact Dan via email.
