Provenance |
Made for the Wm. Taylor & Son business of Owen Sound. Sound and Grey County did not have a bottle glass factory, so bottles were manufactured elsewhere and shipped in for use by doctors, druggists, etc. John R. Graves found this at a Grey County dumpsite. He suggested that the bottle might be from c. 1915. It might be younger than that. |
