This bottle is not an original, as it was a specially made gift for Dr. Jacobitz. Delamar is a ghost town, and the old Delamar saloon proprietor was P. Giusti. The top of this piece has been professionally repaired with resin. 12" tall, seamless construction. This bottle bears engraved gold lettering on its rich, dark, amber glass. Better than excellent condition. The town of Delamar was founded on gold mining in the early 1890s. It was nicknamed "The Maker of Widows" because of the quartzite dust inhaled by the miners, who developed silicosis. - Jacobitz Collection -59666
