Additicted to the white stuff! - 7/23/2011 6:49:24 PM    milkglassbottles Posts: 595 Joined: 12/30/2007 Status: offline Hello guys and dolls! Perhaps there is more to milk glass than mid to late 1800's pharmacy, bitters and utilitarian bottles. I have a new addiction, still white, but a bit older.

SOUTH JERSEY AND OTHERS - 7/23/2011 6:59:35 PM    milkglassbottles Posts: 595 Joined: 12/30/2007 Status: offline Again, all pontiled with applied ring, lip and handles. The mug was footed but it sank under the weight and now it looks like a disk on the bottom. The creamer is South Jersey, the decanter is American and the mug....still trying to figure that out. Keep your eyes open for me, I am looking for early blown milk glass!

RE: Milk glass cordial glass - 7/23/2011 8:12:33 PM    Jim Posts: 3626 Joined: 7/5/2005 From: Lewistown, PA Status: offline That is some top-notch killer stuff, Gary. I wouldn't mind finding one or two of those decorated pieces myself. I like anything that is decorated in the Pennsylvania German style. I can understand why they are growing on you. One of these days, I'll post a picture of my 1820 Pennsylvania German blanket chest. Right now, it is buried behind some other stuff upstairs while I do some renovations. It's going in my new bedroom once I get it done.  ~Jim _____________________________ Preserving our buried history, one pit at a time. http://www.freewebs.com/lewistownbottles/index.htm (in reply to milkglassbottles) Post #: 15
