This is not your average Conrad Original Budweiser to say the least. Words can't describe how amazing this bottle actually is! To start with I dug this bottle from a privy in Wichita Kansas. The privy was in use during the late 1870's to early 1880's based on the age of other bottles found with the Budweiser. The bottle stands 6-3/4 inches tall and looks like a blob soda. The front is embossed ORIGINAL BUDWEISER and the back THIS BOTTLE NOT TO BE SOLD. the embossing is very bold and crisp. The base is embossed U.S.T.6376 (United States Trademark & 6376 was Carl Conrad's patent number). The character of this bottle is unbelievable. The glass is whittled, the neck is full of crude twisted stretch marks, it leans to one side, the blob top is crudely applied, and there are even yellow glass streaks in the neck. The condition is just as amazing. The bottle must not have seen circulation as there is no case wear. There are no chips or cracks and the bottle is not tumbled it actually came out of the ground this clean. Most people look at it and think that it has been tumbled. I would guess that Carl Conrad had this bottle made maybe as an experiment and who knows how it ended up in Wichita. Don't miss this opportunity to own what is probably the rarest of all Budweiser bottles!     I plan to sell off my bottle collection so watch my upcoming auctions. I have many great Kansas and St. Joseph Missouri bottles to sell. Place a Bid!
