Up for sale is a lot of 5 vintage milk bottle caps — New Old Stock, unused, and in great condition. These are the classic paper/cardboard discs used to cap glass milk bottles before pull-tops and plastic took over, and each one in this lot is from a different dairy, making it a nice little grouping for a collector or for display.
Included in this lot:
Brookside Dairy — Grade A Pasteurized Cream, licensed by Johnson County Health Dept. (orange rim)
Stueber's Orange Drink — Wausau, Wis., "Quality Chekd," lists water, sugar, concentrated orange juice, citric acid, orange oil, artificial color (dark green rim)
Sun-Ray-Lea Farm — Raw Milk, Abington, Mass. 02351 (natural/tan rim)
Hopkins Dairy — Homogenized Grade A Pasteurized Milk, Bath, N.Y., Phone PR 6-4335 (natural/tan rim)
Thiele's Dairy, Inc. — Lowfat Milk 2% Milkfat, Homogenized, Pasteurized, Shawnee Road, North Tonawanda, N.Y. 14120 (yellow and white striped rim)
These are unused and have never been on a bottle — colors are bright and the printing is crisp and legible on all five, as shown in the photos. A great find for collectors of dairy advertising, milk bottle cap collections (or "milk cap" / "milk bottle top" collectors), general Americana, or vintage advertising ephemera.
Please see all photos, which are part of the description — ask any questions before purchasing.
