Description

This is a glass ink bottle. It is colorless and stained. The bottle has a circular base and rounded shoulder. It has neck rings and a flat lip. The bottle has a section of glass missing from its body. On the base of the bottle, there are embossed words that read "Watermans Ink / Made in Canada".

This manufacturers' mark indicates that the glass bottle was produced by Consumers Glass Co. in Montreal because the company used this mark between 1917 and 1961.
