Recent Acquisition- B&G







The Canyonville, Oregon show had a wide variety of nice glass. I was fortunate to pick up this great example of a B&G San Francisco soda. This is one of those rare combinations of great condition ( never cleaned) and no wear on the lettering. The glass is pretty clean with the exception of some stain, but no etching or pitting. Combined with a huge top, and pristine pontil, this was a great find for me. This is a classic Gold Rush soda that is getting very hard to find in this condition.

  1. Pristine soda, don't we wish all Gold Rush sodas were that mint. Is that the one that was just dug in California ?

  2. The B&G is one of the more uniquely shaped & nicer looking western sodas out there. Very tough to find an uncleaned example with little to no wear.
