   Thanks for all that great info. But what was wierd was the one I found said “BOSTON” on it, not Providence. Maybe they had a Boston bottling plant too? Interesting….

   Part III
   The Providence Brewing Co. remained in business until 1925 and in 1926 Mensing turned the building into the Providence Storage Co.

   Part II
   In the meantime, Hanley was also the president of the James Hanley Brewing Co. and John E. Good was the owner of the Providence Bottling Co. In 1906 Good quit the business with Hanley and devoted his time to his bottling company only.

   In 1907 Hanley took on Gustave F. Mensing as a manager for the Providence Brewing Co. and Mensing soon became its secretary and treasurer. They were producing Bohemian beer, ales, and porters of the finest quality.

   Another nice vid Bill. I found this out about that Providence bottle you found, not sure if you have researched it yet or not.

   The Providence Brewing Co., formerly the American Brewing Co., was located at 431 Harris Ave., corner of Eagle St., in Providence in 1896 with James Hanley as it’s president. He was joined in 1897 by John E. Good who became the company’s secretary and treasurer.
