I am trying to sell a sealed bottle. I was hoping someone might be able to help me out... I will try to post a photo soon.
The front of the bottle is done in caligraphy.
The name is Joseph M. Frey.
The Aurora Hist. Soc. first found him in the directory in 1892.
He was a wholesale and retail liquor dealer who had a house at 55 S. Broadway.
In 1905 he is in Chicago with partner Gus Metzger.
The last directory he appears in, 1919, shows Joseph M. and Wife gertrude, liquor wholesale and retail at 55 S. broadway and residence at 335 S. LaSalle St.
This is in Aurora, Il.
There is more on the front of the bottle I will post shortly... wondered in anyone was familiar with the bottler.
