#2368 731 S. MC KEE & CO. Blue aqua.
Some McKee threadless were used in eastern states, as well as on the Union Pacific Railroad in Wyoming and Utah.
Samuel McKee, born in 1808, learned glass blowing as a boy. In 1834 he, along with James McKee and James Salisbury, erected a window glass factory. Two years later, Samuel McKee, James McKee and Thomas McKee created the firm of S. McKee & Company. In 1860, Samuel became sole proprietor, remaining in business until his death in 1877. Window glass, bottles and other wares were produced. Insulators were only a small portion of articles manufactured.
An exceptional example with very strong embossing. Bright, sparkling glass with nice clarity.
Appears to have possibly been slightly tumble cleaned. Overall, wonderful condition...there's even a thin "fin" of glass protruding at the mold line on the side skirt which remains fully intact.
