THE BELFAST GINGER ALE CO SAN FRANCISCO CAL. Blob top. Here is a bottle that is quite rare and in fact this rare variant is maybe only the second one we have seen. Notice the slug area where the change in the mold was made. It should read SODA WATER before the GINGER ALE! It was found in an outhouse hole with a Reiners soda and an aqua Gerdes to give you an idea of the heady company it kept. Although there are a few scratches and a no harm open bubble on the base corner, this one is pure San Francisco. It’s been a long time since we’ve handled one of these, no doubt it will be quite some time before we have another. A really nice green aqua. Grades 8.5.

Winning Bid: $ 500
