New eBay grabs - 5/28/2011 1:48:56 PM    Wheelah23 Posts: 4296 Joined: 8/9/2010 From: Glen Ridge, New Jersey Status: offline I've added a few nice local bottles to my collection in the past couple weeks. I've also missed about as many. Anyway, I was happy to add these few to my collection. First is a smaller druggist from Montclair. I like the monogram. I dug a larger size version of this, but it is badly cracked. "D. H. BALDWIN/ DRUGGIST/ (D.H.B. Monogram)/ & CHEMIST/ MONTCLAIR/ N.J."

Even though it is ABM, it's still a nice bottle, and looks just like any late tooled medicine. On one side panel "ANNA ELIZABETH WADE", and on the other, "EAST ORANGE,N.J.U.S.A.". It says "6/ A.E.W." on the base.

RE: New eBay grabs - 5/28/2011 1:57:34 PM    Wheelah23 Posts: 4296 Joined: 8/9/2010 From: Glen Ridge, New Jersey Status: offline Last, and certainly not least, is this J.W. Ransley soda bottle from East Orange. It came in the mail today. The condition is even better than I thought from the eBay listing. "J.W. RANSLEY/ EAST ORANGE/ N.J.". And on the base, "THIS BOTTLE IS NEVER SOLD". It's got a Baltimore Loop closure. The base is puzzling, I'll explain more on the next post. P.S. No, that's not a camera effect: The embossing really is that crude. I guess whoever carved the mold had a shaky hand.

RE: New eBay grabs - 5/28/2011 2:01:54 PM    Wheelah23 Posts: 4296 Joined: 8/9/2010 From: Glen Ridge, New Jersey Status: offline The base is unlike any blobs I've seen before. The embossing is excised further than most base embossing to begin with, but the base is also slightly rounded. The effect of this is that the bottle is actually resting on the embossing, because the embossing is around the edge of the base.

You can get a general idea of the effect anyway.
