ARTIFACT:
Beautiful, minty, 1941 Portsmouth, New Hampshire Badger Farms Creameries milk bottle. The front reads: BADGER FARMS CREAMERIES in orange painted detail and above reads: ONE QUART LIQUID. The neck of the bottle shows a round embossed seal that reads: MASS BB SEAL. The reverse of the bottle reads: BADGERS and is surrounded by three images, a cup that reads: COTTAGE CHEESE, a box that reads: GUERNSEYS BUTTER, and a bowl of ice cream that reads: GUERNSEYS BRAND ICE CREAM all detailed in orange paint and the base reads: REGISTERED 5 B. The bottom of the bottle shows a large letter B and the date 1941 in embossed detail, also a maker or bottlers mark with the number 17 on one side and 1 or I on the other. Established in 1877, Badger Farms Creameries initially pasteurized milk for local farms and then later began to produce and deliver dairy foods and milk. Portsmouth was not the only plant that Badger Creameries owned, there was also one in Newbury, Massachusetts and until milk delivery collapsed, the company ran hundreds of trucks that delivered all over the Seacoast. The creamery was on the corner of Bow and Daniel St., now a parking lot near St. Johns Church.
