MEIKLE BROS. Hutchinson soda bottle from VANCOUVER BC (British Columbia Canada). Bottle dates from about 1900. Has rounded base with level bottom. This type of bottle was used to bottle carbonated beverages, such as flavored soda water. This type of closure was patented in 1879, and after a few decades of use, fell from favor, mainly due to the difficulty of cleaning the bottle with the stopper pressed down partially blocking the opening. Has original stopper inside the bottle.
