been a good couple of months for new addttions - 1/5/2012 11:25:52 AM    baltbottles   Posts: 2301 Joined: 11/25/2002 From: Baltimore Maryland Status: offline I've had a great couple of months picking up some Rare Baltimore pieces for my collection. I added two new pontiled soda molds to my collection I didn't have. One color variation of a pontiled sodaI already had a couple of, three new stoneware bottle names I didn't have and a pontiled medicine variation in a size I didn't have. Anythime I add 7 new bottles to the collection in two months I'm doing really good. Chris The 3 sodas a W. COUGHLAN / BALTO in a rectangular slugplate, a JOHN CLARK / F.P. / BALTO in a rectangular slugplate, and a light green F.&L.

BROWN stoneware root beer bottle circa 1840sTheer are known Dr. Brown bottles from New york also as he moved there after he was in Baltimore. The new york bottles look different and do not have the J.A. initials on the bottles.

I have seen quite a few of your bottles over the years you have posted . If I were closer to you , I would love to see your entire collection , it has to be quite impressive . epackage I would guess also has a nice collection of locals as well . I was raised in a small town , and all the years I have collected I have only found one small medicine bottle from a local druggist . I concentrated some over the years on Cincinnati bottles and have come up with quite a few . If I had the extra money to spend on bottles over the years I would have had quite a collection of Cincy bottles . Just as well I guess , don't have a lot of room to have an expansive collection , but I have greatly enjoyed seeing other collections over the years . Good luck with continually expanding your collection of locals . (in reply to baltbottles) Post #: 6

I visited my Uncle who lived in Ellicot City a good many years ago . He owned a paint factory in Baltimore . I remember walking around the quite large building and there was a ravine in the back area that just looked like it would have to be a dump hiding there ! (in reply to baltbottles) Post #: 8

RE: been a good couple of months for new addttions - 1/5/2012 4:18:34 PM    baltbottles   Posts: 2301 Joined: 11/25/2002 From: Baltimore Maryland Status: offline Right now of bottlers brewers and several other occupations that just happen to have bottled soda or beer before 1870 and have a marked bottle either glass or pottery known from them there are 48 different names. As for glass bottles there are currently 60 different molds I know of that date before 1870 some of the most prolific Baltimore bottlers have 10 or more different molds used over the span of their business. There are many more bottlers and brewers that are listed in the directories during this time that currently no know marked bottles have been found. So either the used paper labels or their bottles have been lost to history.

Coughlan / Balto porter with his cousins William Coughlan is my favorite bottler and probably Baltimore's most prolific. He was in business from 1842 until 1874 he died in January of 1875 at age 65. I currently have 10 different Coughlan molds with at least two more known to me that I would like to get examples of. Many of these molds come in quite a few different color and lip style variations.

I love the idea of collecting all the known bottles from a certain time period in a large city. I could never do it for Newark, there are just too many bottles! I guess I'm doing the same thing for my local towns, although obviously small town bottles are a lot less documented than stuff from Baltimore. _____________________________ Looking for bottles from Glen Ridge, Montclair, Bloomfield, Orange, East Orange, West Orange, South Orange, and if I like 'em, any other bottles from Essex County NJ! Also Manahawkin NJ! Message me if you want to find them a new home. (in reply to baltbottles) Post #: 20
