RE: Palmer - 6/14/2010 3:09:41 PM    swizzle Posts: 3583 Joined: 3/2/2005 From: Upstate NY Status: offline With the flat side like that my first thought was an Antrol type bottle for killing ants. I would guess that those were sold 2 bottles to a set and they were meant to set end to end. Perty little bottle. Swiz (in reply to JOETHECROW) Post #: 8

RE: Palmer - 6/14/2010 4:47:02 PM    swizzle Posts: 3583 Joined: 3/2/2005 From: Upstate NY Status: offline I would think 1880/90's look at the lip in some good light outside and see if you can see any seam at all going through the lip. Sometimes its very faint. Swiz (in reply to tftfan) Post #: 11

RE: Palmer - 6/15/2010 4:19:57 PM    KBbottles Posts: 1403 Joined: 2/24/2010 From: South Brunswick, NJ Status: offline That's definitely a keeper.  I have one in my collection as well and it's one of the better and older Palmer bottles.  definitely around TOC possibly a little earlier/later but pretty old. _____________________________ Collecting NJ Pontil Sodas and anything else pontiled from NJ.

RE: Palmer - 6/15/2010 4:59:37 PM    swizzle Posts: 3583 Joined: 3/2/2005 From: Upstate NY Status: offline Hey Matt, Just wondering why you're saying 1920's at the latest? I don't see a seam through the lip and maybe I'm jumping to conclusions on the date. I just assumed most BIM's were 1880/90's maybe TOC and older. Just curious is all.

RE: Palmer - 6/15/2010 6:29:59 PM    GuntherHess Posts: 11468 Joined: 12/13/2004 From: Frederick Maryland Status: offline automatic bottle blowing machines started being used in the first decade of the 20th century but the practice of hand blowing didnt all stop exactly at that time. I'm sure there were still bottles being hand blown in the teens. _____________________________ FREE Online Medicine Guide - http://www.antiquemedicines.com/MedicineNexus/Nexus.htm Web Site - http://antiquemedicines.com Email : mknapp@antiquemedicines.com (in reply to swizzle) Post #: 16

RE: Palmer - 6/15/2010 7:22:02 PM    swizzle Posts: 3583 Joined: 3/2/2005 From: Upstate NY Status: offline Oh no doubt. The one place I worked at was a knitting mill and one of the machines that's still there in use is over 100 years old. I was just wondering if there was some little tidbit of joy that I overlooked that would help me to date bottles with a greater degree of accuracy. Either way this bottle has a couple things going for it. Color and shape and decent embossing. I like it and wish I could tell you more about it. Swiz (in reply to GuntherHess) Post #: 17

RE: Palmer - 6/15/2010 8:57:43 PM    GuntherHess Posts: 11468 Joined: 12/13/2004 From: Frederick Maryland Status: offline Palmer's company produced products from the late 19th through the 20th century. I would guess that bottle is 1900 +/- 10yrs. _____________________________ FREE Online Medicine Guide - http://www.antiquemedicines.com/MedicineNexus/Nexus.htm Web Site - http://antiquemedicines.com Email : mknapp@antiquemedicines.com (in reply to swizzle) Post #: 18

I'm sure there were still bottles being hand blown in the teens. right on, in delaware a company that started in 1918 used an embossed hutch. ABM cost a fair amount of money, so smaller bottle firms would have stuck with hand finishing techniques for a while, so small bottlers could have easily used hand finished bottles until 1920. _____________________________ Collector of Delaware Bottles, figural bitters, early freeblown.
