I'm intrigued by that res one also... is there anything on it? Can you take a picture of just that bottle?
You know that sea glass people would probably pay you good money for that red one so they can tumble it for faux seaglass. I would keep it the way it is - it's just such an unusual color!
I'd be having them drive a dumptruck load to my backyard!

Great finds!
Kate

amber wilmington delaware cokes are good finds, they usually sell for around $30-60, sometimes more at auction if there are two eager bidders.

Kate just for you here are more pictures of the little red bottle there is nothing on the bottle except for some mold blemishes and what's left is 41/2" tall so I'd estimiate it was 5"originialy and it's 11/2" across at the base.  I took several pictures so anyone out there thats ever run into one of these let me know.

And finally a close up of the broken neck.  I could not find any seams anywhere on the bottle.

div2roty thanks for the info on the amber Coke bottle.  I was really excited about finding it.  There are quite a few of the regular Coke bottles around the site mostly chipped or broken.  This one is in great shape cleaning may be a bit of a problem what with all the scuff marks.

It rained on the site today so no work.  Came home and wrote reports then started going through the boxes of bottles again.  Pulled out the following and put them together. From left to right on the back row a HEALY & BIGELOW'S KICKAPOO INDIAN OIL, a colbalt AMYL-KIJO, a MRS WINSLOWS SOOTHING SYRUP, Dr J W BULLS BABY SYRUP, middle row two Hoyt & Co bottles the larger one says PERFUMERS LOWELL, MASS the smaller says HOYT'S 5CENT GERMAN COLOGNE, and the brown one is a SHARP & DOHME poison.  These all came from diffrent areas of this two acre site.

Anybody know what kind of bottle this is and what it would have been used for?  It has Germany embossed on it.

They were liquor sample bottles I was once told,...We used to dig them in amber color at the old  lead smelting plant dump in Buffalo NY....They are a figural of a cigar.....                              Joe

I actually had to dig into a big pile of soil today to find any bottles.  I know the pile holds more just hope I can get into it more before they haul it away.  Anyway came home washed off the crud and here's what I got today.  A plain med, a Davis OK baking soda, a Warranted Flask, a Dr. Bull's cough syrup, 2 more plain meds and a small 25cc US Navy Medical Department bottle.  Found many necks and pieces picked them all up.  There was a large demi john neck and the bottom to a beer bottle from Annapolis see next picture.
