Contributor An entity responsible for making contributions to the resource Maria Masucci Type The nature or genre of the resource Glass Coverage The spatial or temporal topic of the resource, the spatial applicability of the resource, or the jurisdiction under which the resource is relevant These bottles were likely either for mineral water or carbonated soda drinks. This type of bottle was intentionally manufactured with a rounded bottom so that the bottles would lie on their side; the design would prevent the wired down cork from drying out and shrink which would have allowed the contents to loose carbonation and/or evaporate. The bottle type is often referred to as “round bottom sodas” or “ballast bottles” or can be found now referred to as torpedo bottles. The latter name stems from the belief that such bottles were shipped from England to the United States as “ballast,” or weight, in the cargo bays of ships. Usually, this kind of bottle was made in a two-piece mold, though variations were hand-blown. According to historical dating of such bottles, one such as this could have been produced in the United States or Great Britain. According to online resources for antique bottles, the vast majority of this bottle type found in the United States is from Great Britain, specifically the countries of England and Ireland. It is known that the bottles may even have been produced overseas for distributors in the United States such as seen in the Illinois Glass Company’s 1906 catalog, offering a round bottom “ginger ale” bottle design that was very common in the United Kingdom.

As the Stanley Felt Paper Mill stopped producing clothes items in the late 1800s, they instead began to cover the felt they were producing with tar in order to create roof shingles. As there was evidence of felt clothes pieces and uniformly sized tar-covered felt pieces found at the site, this supports that idea.

Title A name given to the resource DUPRS_0040 Gulden's Mustard Bottle Subject The topic of the resource Gulden's Mustard Bottle Description An account of the resource The artifact is a partially intact clear glass bottle. Although it is a fragmented artifact, most of the bottle is intact. The fragment suggests that the original artifact was not perfectly cylindrical but rather smallest in diameter at the top and bottom and thickest in the middle. The glass is unscathed and clear with very few blemishes. There is partial lettering, and all of the letters on the bottle are clearly readable. These letters are not painted on; they are formed into the glass. The fragment has approximately 6cm in diameter. The fragment measures 7cm in height, however, it does not seem that the fully intact bottle would be more than a few centimeters taller than the fragment. Both the bottom and sides of the bottle were approximately .4cm thick.

The shape and size of the artifact are very similar to that of mustard bottles that were manufactured between the 1890s and the 1920s. There are several documented photographs of bottles also manufactured by Gulden during these times that have the same barrel design as the artifact found also the Passaic River. These bottles are quite bulbous and are meant specifically for mustard. Their bulbous structure allows for easy extraction of the sauce-like condiment. This artifact appears to be a mustard bottle manufactured between 1850 and 1930. The first prototype for this bottle was patented in 1845 and slight variations of the barrel shape were made until the company converted to plastic bottles in the late 20th century.

Salt, the first condiment widely used, was used to mask the taste of meat that was less than fresh. It is difficult to interpret the cultural meaning of a condiment like mustard during the early 20th century. However, given this good housekeeping advertisement from 1922, it seems that Gulden's Mustard was advertised as a condiment to be used in upper-class homes. The advertisement shows a hefty steak on top of expensive china with bright silverware and Gulden's Mustard on the side to make the perfect meal. This shows that mustard was a higher class condiment and if you could afford it, it showed status. The advertisement is trying to make people think that they are fancy and higher-class if they buy Gulden's mustard. They want to show that the food will taste better, like high-class food.

S.S. Stafford was making ink as early as 1858, but the company did not start producing ink commercially until 1869. If the total size of the bottle was reconstructed, a more specific date could be estimated. By understanding the size of the bottle we could look at the records and when this size of bottle was first introduced into the market. During the 19th century, America had a booming ink industry. The ink industry included open wards of 300 different ink makers. All of them were spread out over America. Those best known were Davids, Maynards and Noyes, Carter, Underwood, Stafford, Moore, Davis, Thomas, Stanford, Barnes, Morrell, Walkden, Lyons, Freeman, Murray, Todd, Bonney, Pomeroy, Worthington, Joy, Blair, Cross, Dunlap, Higgins, Paul, Anderson, Woodmansee, Delang, Allen, Stearns, Gobel, Wallach, Bartram, Ford and Harrison. S.S. Stafford Ink Company was founded in New York. “Stafford’s Ink” combined writing and copying ink. S.S. Stafford Ink Company made an appeal in the district court of the southern district of New York. In the 1920s S.S. Stafford Ink Company was in court over a bottle stopper. They brought to court Thaddeus Davids Ink Company, arguing that Davids Ink Co. had taken their produce without prepared consent and sold it on their bottles. This shows how S.S. Stafford had become a big part of the industry. They were making new bottle designs, and also harshly competing with the other ink companies near them.

On the smallest piece, the letters “KEI--” are legible and there is a leaf pattern above them. On the medium piece, the letters “--R MARMAL-- 1862 –AIN” are legible and there is also a partial leaf pattern. On the largest piece, the letters “& SON'S --DEE --ALADE” are legible and the leaf pattern appears to be in a semi-circular formation around the words. The thickness of the sherds varies due to processes of natural transformation. The glaze is worn off from most of the interior surfaces but the area with glaze intact measures 0.4cm thickness. This is the thickest area on any of the sherds. The smallest sherd measures approximately 2.5cm x 1.5cm, the medium sherd approximately 4cm x 4cm, and the largest sherd approximately 4.5cm x 5cm.

According to the Maling Collectors' Society Newsletter, a great number of the 19th-century pots have been found all over America, from Michigan to Hawaii. Keiller & Son's would have been shipping around the world at this point, thanks to Britain's territorial power. In 1870 the sugar duty was halved and then abolished in 1874, reducing the price of marmalade manufacturing and making it more available to lower-income consumers. Because the sherds are clearly from three separate jars, it can be assumed that the marmalade was a common item in the area, or at least a kitchen staple for one household. Women who might be working in factories or simply seeking to make their household tasks easier, would increasingly be purchasing ready-made goods from grocers. The appearance of branded goods suggests the burgeoning grocery business around the turn of the century 20th century. This would agree with the estimated date being around the late 19th-early 20th century. Though these jars would have been relatively common in the area at the time, they tell a part of the bigger story of the grocery business which would have been a new and revolutionary enterprise and would grow and evolve with America's changing values over the 20th century.

In 1892, several branch factories were established in various parts of the country and world such as Mexico, London, New York, Japan, Africa, and Chicago. It was stored in small, milk glass jars with the maker’s mark embossed on the bottom and a label glued to the front. This was considered to be a more high-end cheese product.
