Fairmount Bottling Company
semafore:
I just purchased a soda bottle on Ebay made by the Fairmount Bottling Company of Hackensack. According to George Scudder's essay "Fairmount - 1915", page 2 (on the Local History part of this web site), this was a company owned by O.H Krause on Voorhis Lane. Does anyone know anything about the bottling company or O.H. Krause (who was my Great Grandfather)?

Editor:
Is this the bottle you bought? Nice find. I'll look into O.H. Krause and let you know if I find anything.
semafore:
Yes, this is the bottle I bought. Does anyone know is the Johnson Public Library will answer email questions? A 1920 Hackensack directory is always appearing on Ebay and I wondered if the library had a copy.
Editor:
Library responded to your question:
The Hackensack Library has some city directories in book format and some on microfilm. The 1920 Directory is on microfilm (the reel contains 1912-1920). It is housed in the Periodicals Dept. which is open Mon-Thurs 9 a.m. to 8:30 p.m. and Friday and Saturday 9 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.
