Embossed: DUFFIELD & EVANS / PHILAD.A // SUPERIOR / MINERAL WATERS

Condition: near perfect structurally with no chips or cracks. Under the bottom there is a <1/4 open bubble with onion peel around it, no real harm. The lip has a few teeny spots of old slight roughness. This dug bottle was only been rinsed out, and so it has some overall wear and stain that could be polish cleaned if desired.
