Archies tend to be over protective sometimes but this is a perfect example the their usefulness.

Officials and archaeologists alike are concerned that people interested in Dyottsville bottles – which are valuable to collectors – might come looking for them before all is recorded and cataloged.

Gotta love this comment.. like none of us could find where they are at.. gotta love the arches like we would jump thier site and risk getting locked up..

They don't want someone 'jumping the claim" but then said that a really interesting part of the glassworks is on private property next door.

Status: offline 		Hi well I copied what was posted and even sent the following Note and tried to join in the reported information.  I am especially interested in the solid pours of solid glass mold heating, to improve the quality of the glass distribution in their production.  
"I am RED Matthews.  I have read references to the Dyottville Glassworks use of solid bottles poured into bottle molds to preheat the molds before their bottle production was started at a shop.  I have heard of specimens of these solid glass products were found there.  So, I would like to know if this digging produces some samples.  <bottlemysteries@yahoo.com>  Thank you."
I have no Idea if this will get any replies, but I had to try.   RED Matthews.
