Monday Blues Bottles

In 1872, Hiram Codd invented his famous 'Codd Bottle' - it was filled under gas pressure till a washer and glass marble were forced into the neck, forming a tight seal. Sadly, kids smashed the Codds to get at the marbles and any that escaped were too hard to clean so another brainwave bit the dust.
