This glass bottle appears to be extremely rare, imprinted with the name "Albert Weinkauf," in a medallion on the front, around a three-diamond figure, the location, "Corona, L.I." beneath it. It warns that "This bottle is not to be sold." It shows the lines on either side where the bottle was cast, up to the lip that was added separately. It retains its original lid.

History: Corona, Long Island was once considered to be a "Valley of Ash," so described by F. Scott Fitzgerald in The Great Gatsby. For the end of the 19th Century and into the 20th, the area was swallowed by ash dumps and garbage. It was only around 1930 that steps were finally taken to manage the hazardous and unsanitary conditions. It was eventually bought out, cleaned up, and made into the park that it is today.
