Long Description
Bottle found in vacant house we just bought long with several old bottles. Has a seal on the front Johannis-Brunnen on top of seal Prov. Nassau on the bottom. Middle of seal is a B with a crown on it. Back has the imprint of No 9. No markings on the bottom. Can't find anything online...period. Some of the other bottles date back to 1885 so I was hoping this would be old as well.Â

Re: Johannis-Brunnen
My father found a bottle with the same markings (crown with a B) 56 years ago while working for a dredging company in the port of Wilmington Delaware. I have always wondered what this ceramic bottle was. I also saw one on display just like it at Ft. Pulaski near Savannah. I'm so glad to get any infromation on it. Thanks
