Very busy label states:

"CONTAINS LESS THAN 0.5% ALCOHOL BY VOL."
This is a fantastic survivor, fully labeled beer bottle
It is all original-as found with a fair amount of dust still on the shoulders.
Labels display BOLD and PROUD. True colors all around. Look closely and you will see the nicks to the edges of the body label and the hit to the "A" in "Special"
The neck label has a nicked corner and reads:
"A CASE OF GOOD TASTE" ESTABLISHED 1912
The crown is rusted beyond recognition.
The glass is excellent, with no chips or signs of wear.
Nicely whittled neck and deep amber color.
The bottom is embossed:
"MASSACHESETTS BREWERIES CO., BOSTON."
Absconding bottles was common practice back in the day.
Heel is embossed: E. HE. CO. REGISTERED
