rare antique glass fire extinguisher bottle grenade shape cobalt blue Rockford Kalamazoo

1800s vintage embossed glass hand fire extinguisher bottle, unbroken (empty) with what we believe is the original cork stopper. This measures about 11" tall, and is marked Rockford - Kalamazoo.
It came out of a household in the Wisconsin / Illinois state line area (just north of Rockford Illinois), part of an estate untouched for about 100 years. There aren't too many of these bottles left around.
There's a little crystallization at the cork, and some soil or faint traces of the original contents inside the bottle. It's odor free, dry, clean over the entire exterior.
