    • Here’s a scarce antique original figural bear
    reading a book bottle over 110 years old…..hand blown with original nickel plated cap with shaker holes! This could be a “Roosevelt” bear because it
    is similar to those bears used in early 1900 illustrations of Teddy
    Roosevelt and the bear he let go while hunting.This bear is sitting on a
    wood grain trunk while holding a book with 2 paws….he is wearing a
    top coat with bowtie and tails on back. The bottom of trunk is emb
    PAT.APL’D FOR …..Hand blown in 3 piece mold…..rough ground threaded
    lip ….clear….square….4 3/4″tall…Excellent condition with only
    some natural roughness & a couple chips on top of lip from when the blowpipe was
    snapped from the lip and lip was ground; no other chips or damage. A shiny clean bottle
    with no haze. This could have been some kind of flavored salt or spice
    bottle…or possibly a candy container that could have been reused as a
    salt shaker? I guarantee it is over 110 years old and was probably made
    in the 1890s ..
