Comments/description: Beautifully embossed bottle bears a rare GBS Ideal Beer Special Brew paper label on the other side. Circa 1900. All items are original unless otherwise noted. For questions, feedback, or to sell a similar item contact Dan via email.
Condition
Bottle is super clean and the detail of the embossed side is enhanced by the shine and clarity of the glass. The label is soiled and has a tear across the center to just below the L of IDEAL. Smaller tears are present around the edge and small pieces are missing as shown. All text and design elements are evident, however, so the piece displays well on this side too.
Available payment options
Winning bidders will receive an invoice within 3 days of auction close detailing shipping costs and insurance. Bidders may opt to accept the risk of loss or damage in transit and forego insurance by contacting auctioneer.
