Prepare to be amazed by this incredibly rare and sought-after piece of American beverage history! Behold the Very Rare Vintage Squirt Cork Lined Bottle Cap, a true treasure bottled by the legendary Armstrong Cork Company out of Pittsburgh and later Lancaster, Pennsylvania in the thrilling 1950s era!

This captivating antique vintage bottle cap isn't just any ordinary collectible - it's a testament to the ever-changing landscape of American business. Squirt, the iconic citrus soda, has been passed around like a sizzling hot potato, changing hands more times than anyone can keep track of. Today, it's proudly owned by the beverage giant Keurig Dr. Pepper, but its journey has been nothing short of extraordinary!

What makes this particular bottle cap an absolute gem for collectors and antique enthusiasts alike is its unique cork lining, courtesy of the renowned Armstrong Cork Company. This feature elevates its desirability to astronomical levels! In fact, after scouring countless archives and references, I've yet to find another example of this specific cap being sold publicly. Talk about a limited edition antique gift!

Prepare to be transported back in time as we delve into the fascinating history of the Armstrong Cork Company. Picture this: the year is 1860, and in a humble one-room shop in Pittsburgh, PA, skilled craftsmen are meticulously carving corks by hand. These corks, destined for greatness, are delivered via wheelbarrows to eager customers. Fast forward to the 1890s, and Armstrong Cork has skyrocketed to become the world's largest cork supplier!

But the story doesn't end there, folks! This iconic American company, still thriving today, has its headquarters in Lancaster, PA, along with an impressive network of 26 facilities and 9 manufacturing plants spread across the nation. Talk about staying power! When the winds of change began to blow, and alternative materials threatened to replace traditional corks, Armstrong Cork didn't just adapt - they revolutionized! They pivoted brilliantly into the flooring industry and have since expanded their expertise to walls and ceilings. (And who knows? Maybe by 2040, they'll be tackling basements too! Just kidding, of course - let's stick to the facts!)

Now, here's where things get even more intriguing. The exact date when Armstrong bottled these caps remains a tantalizing mystery. It appears to have been a brief, yet significant period in their illustrious history. To err on the side of caution, we've dated this extraordinary piece to the 1950s, but there's a possibility it could be even older! Imagine the stories this bottle cap could tell if it could speak!

Don't miss this rare opportunity to own a piece of American industrial and beverage history. This antique vintage Armstrong Cork bottle cap is more than just a collectible - it's a conversation starter, a time capsule, and a testament to the ingenuity and adaptability of one of America's most enduring companies. Add this exceptional antique gift to your collection today and let it transport you back to a bygone era of innovation and craftsmanship!
