Most bitter were in odd or medicine shaped bottles. It's nice to have a few whiskey style bottles in there. < Message edited by capsoda -- 3/3/2006 12:11:33 AM > _____________________________ Warren Diggin down in Dixie, USA Work is for people who don't dig bottles President, Panhandle Cruisers http://www.panhandlecruisers.org/ (in reply to dollarbill) Post #: 2

You could take the hide off you finger tip on the bottom of this thing. It's like emery paper. Thought it was just an unusually deep post mold at first til I stuck my finger in there like a dope.

RE: Dr JGB SIEGERT @SONS - 3/9/2006 4:57:38 PM    capsoda Posts: 7703 Joined: 11/15/2005 From: Seminole,Alabama, USA Status: offline They were blown into a mold with the engraving in the bottom just like molds with the engraving in the side and then a pontil was carefully and some times not so carefully in the center. Also notice the lettering on the bottom of my bottle is kind of thick and run out. Thats from refiring. _____________________________ Warren Diggin down in Dixie, USA Work is for people who don't dig bottles President, Panhandle Cruisers http://www.panhandlecruisers.org/ (in reply to dollarbill) Post #: 13

RE: Dr JGB SIEGERT @SONS - 3/11/2006 8:20:20 AM    David E Posts: 995 Joined: 5/24/2004 Status: offline I have a 9" green bottle which is machine made JCB SIEGERT & SON Dr embosed around shoulder ANGOTURA BITTERS embosed on bottom.. Part of label around neck and body of bottle. Looks like about three seals one on top of other on neck (but hard to read) One does say Liquor bottle and another Port of Spain. Label on side of bottle does have foreign language mixed with English.. Partial, ANGOSTURA- WUPPER (Missing) N.J.Says made from bark and it seems long time ago read he was making this somewhere in South America and he was also trying to beat the 1906 act.

That could explain why some bottles were blown and pontiled and others were blm or machine made. Great info David. _____________________________ Warren Diggin down in Dixie, USA Work is for people who don't dig bottles President, Panhandle Cruisers http://www.panhandlecruisers.org/ (in reply to dollarbill) Post #: 18
