This large deep blue cobalt bottle is easily the biggest Wyeth example I've ever run across. It held either medicine or malt liquor. This thing is enormous. It's 12.5 inches tall, 15.5 inches in circumference, and 4.75 inches in diameter. Liquid capacity is nearly 3 quarts (it's short one cup). Dry weight is 2.25 pounds. It is a three-piece mold with a hand-tooled neck and lip. Marks around the circumference read "JNO (sic) WYETH & BRO" and "PHILADA." There are several bubbles in the glass; these are from manufacture. There are no cracks, chips or fleabites. The neck is not symmetrical or very even (pictures of the top looking down show the asymmetry and no, the top of the neck is NOT white), and there is also no seam running up the neck as was usual with later examples. The base is plain, with no pontil. I accept PayPal. US bidders only, please. Shipping will be USPS parcel post based on packed weight and your zip code. Insurance is strongly suggested. Thanks for looking and I will not unpack this bottle for additional pictures as a relist because it's been double-boxed for safety. Last chance to get it at a reduced price.
