  • Taiwan repro and export beer bottle ID

    Yesterday was a dark day for my bottle collecting history. Normally very careful, I threw caution out the window and bought this Taiwan repro at an antique shop. I read somewhere that presidential flasks are worth some money. I usually collect soda pop, medicine and beer bottles, so I have zero experience in flasks. Well, it turned out to be a 1970's Wheaton flask. Oh, well. Or so I thought. When I got home, I took of the price sticker on the bottom. What greeted me as a "Made in Taiwan" mark. All I can say is, I am glad it was only $2. On another note, I also found this export beer bottle, circa 1888-1899. It has a E.H.E. Co. mark on the the side. The company lasted from 1880 something to 1904. I do not know what brand of beer it is though. Can anybody tell me by looking at the logo? Any info will be appreciated.

    (Yes, I am under 21 and holding a beer bottle. I don't drink.)

    Kentucky , I actually found some old 1900 cast iron pieces .
    I was all proud of them till I flipped over the base and it said made in Taiwan . Well I started to google this and found out there were may iron pieces out of the US .back then .
    I also remember at least 60 years ago anything made in Japan was highly prized . Toys were big .
