Kiaora Leona, thank you for your enquiry. This bottle was produced for the DYC Vinegar factory in Williamson Ave, Ponsonby. The factory was in operation from the mid-1920s until 2006. As the bottle's capacity is measured in pints and ounces it is likely it was produced prior to New Zealand's shift to the metric system. Thus we can approximately date this bottle to pre-1970.

When was this from? I just found one like it, no label or top but same bottle with the logo on it. Would love to know what decade it’s from.
