9676 H. & M. Lochen West Bend, Indiana (error)

This antique soda bottle is an error with an misprinted state. It is embossed in a ring, "H. & M. LOCHEN WEST BEND, IND." It is believed that the mold-maker mistook "West Bend, Wisconsin" for "South Bend, Indiana". The embossing is otherwise similar to the 9677 bottles. The blob, however, is more petite than those examples. The glass company is RGCO (reverse hub).
