Possibly the top western amber hutchinson. A rich dark chocolate amber color, mint condition, applied blob top. This rare bottle is one of very few known. The Union Soda Works changed ownership in 1882. It was managed by Charles Buddington and owned by Fred Blush at the time this bottle was manufactured. This is an important western bottle, as the only blob soda from Arizona, and it comes from Tombstone at the exact time of the OK Corral debacle with the Earps and Clantons. There is only one prior auction record, to our knowledge. (see Miller's Guide to Arizona Bottles & Stoneware.) -59669
