Got Milk

One of Edmonton's great old landmarks is this giant milk bottle. It was built in 1928 in New York City. It was made for the Edmonton City Dairy. It sat atop their building downtown for many years and today it sits on the Exhibition Grounds

Cool find! In Australia there are lots of random 'big' objects - from sheep to guitars to lobsters to bananas... Not sure if there's a milk bottle anywhere though...

A very amusing place! Interesting information which is rare to find in press. Fine shot!
