Just want some info on this - 7/1/2011 11:17:55 AM    Zeppelyn   Posts: 31 Joined: 5/10/2011 Status: offline I'm an amateur/casual bottle collector and found this under a collapsed rock wall, which is why it's broken. I just wanted to know more about it because I haven't found one without a mold seam before (which it doesn't have). Unfortunately the most I've found bottles were in old dumpsites on/next to rock walls, so I'm lucky to find one that isn't broken haha. (No I didn't keep it) Post #: 1

Likely dates from 1880-1915, but could be earlier or slightly later. < Message edited by Blackglass -- 7/1/2011 3:49:00 PM > _____________________________ Looking for non-screw or crown top sodas,beers, & ect, BIM medicines, bitters, druggists, and anything hand blown and black glass.

There's a few big fields bordered by the old walls on this dirt road that used to have much more traffic, even a school. There's no trace of any building now though.
