Circa 1860-1865 Rare Citron Yellow Dyottville Glass Works Squat

In more than 30 years of digging Philly privies, I have never even seen a shard of a yellow Dyottville soda. Nor in auctions or at shows. In July 2022, we dug one pit that had shards of several, plus two damaged intact sodas. I kept one and this is the other one. This is smooth-based but came out of a late 50's to early 60's layer. The double taper top is applied.

Embossed: DYOTTVILLE GLASS WORKS / PHILAD.A

Height:  7"  
Color: citron hued yellow

Condition: the bottle is 100% intact with no chips or bruises, but there is a crack that runs from just under the top all the way to the base, and back up to midway on the front where it forks. It also has overall stain and spotty wear.
