Budweiser Lager Bier bottle. Mainz: Carl Conrad & Co., [ca. 1870s-1880s]. Very rare early Budweiser bottle with 3 labels (main label is in German, the other 2 are in English). Clear glass bottle with bluish tint. Approximately 11 ?? high. With ?CC&Co A? monogram on the bottom of the bottle (no other embossed text visible on bottle). Some wear, soiling, chipping, fading to labels. Still, a good example of this very rare early Budweiser bottle. Carl Conrad was a friend of Adolphus Busch, and Busch supplied beer to Conrad; Conrad is generally credited with devising the name, ?Budweiser?.
