Bottle collectors?
« on: March 09, 2010, 07:07:47 am »
Ok, I've been searching high and low for info on this company and I can't find anything. I can find other Tacoma milk companies but not this one. Tried bottle sites, ebay, yahoo, google, etc. How do you go about finding old company info? Trying to figure out age. Thanks!
By the way, it says "Tacoma Hygeia Milk Co."

Worthpoint has one listed as selling in 2007 but I do not have a subscription so I do not know the selling price.  The bottle looks identical to yours.  http://www.worthpoint.com/worthopedia/old-tool-top-tacoma-hygeia-milk-cream-bottle

Also Google books has this listed...
http://books.google.com/books?id=BHLJPWcl2B4C&lpg=RA3-PA16&ots=gFBeR8oarA&dq=%22Tacoma%20Hygeia%20Milk%20%22&pg=RA3-PA16#v=onepage&q=%22Tacoma%20Hygeia%20Milk%20%22&f=false

 from the State of Washington 11th Biennial Report covering the years 1905-1906.

Hope this helps.
