Home Soda Works "Territorial" bottle. Two piece mold, oval slug plate, mug base, with what appears to be an applied top with a bit of wear where the glass was rolled at the base of the top. Interior stain, never cleaned, little or no case wear. Aqua. Approx 7" tall. Proprietor Chas Peverley ran this soda works business in conjunction with a saloon from 1903-1907. In 1907 he moved to California and started the Cascade Bottling Works company and later the Oxnard Soda Works company. Douglas stands on the US/Mexico border, across from the city of Aqua Prieta, Sonora, Mexico. Douglas was a smelter town to treat the copper ore from nearby Bisbee. -52702
