James was doing his own archealogical dig at a renovation of a school he is working on. The refurbishment meant opening up a brick pillar and inside was an old marble stoppered bottle. The base had been broken off and was probably left there by one of the workers last century. It would not have been kids, as these bottles were prized for their marble inside the pinched neck. This one is from GC Meader who ran the Franklin Carbonated Water Company. Most of the bottle is readable including a cool Moonface logo which was the company trade mark. The bottle still rattles with its marble intact.
