| Description, including signature and date | ||||
| Another very fine example of this artist's work, this slightly larger flask contains a bright red three-masted ship with American flag in the aft rigging. The stopper has a bright red dugout canoe with a tiny "Frozen Charlotte" doll lying in it. A knowledgeable bottle expert dates the flask from the mid-1880's. The same maker made several other bottles like this, several of which are on this website. Links to other bottles probably made by the same artist:
