    Description

    Being offered is an antique bottle.  It is embossed Johann Hoff.  The color looks black but when held up to the light it is a dark amber color.  Info I found on this maker was that the company made medicines similar to bitters.  Other info stated malt extract was used making this medicinal alcohol so was a way of being able to drink alcohol under the guise of it being medicine.  The bottle does show age and wearing.  There is a metallic color filmy substance on the outside of the bottle.  I can not see how the inside looks, but when held  to the light there are sections that look like crack lines but the outside shows no cracks or crack lines.  The bottle does have surface dings and nips, with one section having a surface chip revealing a light amber to tan color.  The top opening has surface dings but these have not turned into chips, as you can run your finger around the rim edge without any sharp sections.  I would guess this bottle was dug up from the ground or trash heap.  I am not sure how to rate something like this so have taken close-up pics to help assess the items condition, what you see is what you get.  Approx. 7 3/8" tall by 2 7/8" wide at the bottom.
