Kalamazoo Bottling Works botlle...

[Vanessa Osborn]

Hi everyone!  I recently acquired a bottle that is embossed 'KALAMAZOO BOTTLING WORKS'  in a banner.  It is, I believe, a soda pop bottle.  Around the bottom is embossed CONTENTS 6 1/2 FL . OZ and KALAMAZOO MICH.  Below that is what appears to be a 5 digit number-- 65658-- possibly.  I can't quite make it out clearly.The bottom has a very large letter 'K' and the word registered under that. 

 

I would like to know the particulars about this bottler; years of business, etc. 

Maybe I can be directed to another site-- I'm not the best finder of info on the net!

 

Thanks so much,

Vanessa
