RE: pickle bottle ? - 8/29/2006 9:10:16 PM    welddigger   Posts: 544 Joined: 4/24/2004 From: Hereford,PA. Status: offline Where are you getting these awesome green bottles. Both those are pickles. Kinda hard for me to tell from the close pics but I believe there called pillar style?? If you look at them from the base it should resemble a four leaf clover. They are kinda of desirable by collectors, and the green one probally is a real rarity. I believe they were made in Stoddard but I'm not sure on that? Maybe a pickle collector here could verify that? < Message edited by welddigger -- 8/29/2006 9:11:39 PM > (in reply to peltster) Post #: 3

Do i see a spade on the green one and are the other 3 suits as in cards around it? Also, the aqua looks crude enough to be pontiled, is it? I love to see some more pictures with the bases too. _____________________________ My 10¢ worth (inflation) Eric If you love what your doing it might be illegal, so watch your back.

RE: pickle bottle ? - 9/3/2006 10:41:00 PM    peltster Posts: 307 Joined: 8/12/2006 Status: offline found out the dark green is a heart and anchor pickle bottle. Kovels lists it at $330, but I know that y'all say kovels prices are high. We bought a book yesterday and I was wondering if you had heard of it. Bottles Identification and Price Guide by Michael Polak. Was wondering if his pricing was also high or if it is more reliable, thanks Kyle (in reply to peltster) Post #: 9

The auction went sour but in the end I think it went for 6-8 hundred. That wasn't pontiled but wasn't aqua either. _____________________________ My 10¢ worth (inflation) Eric If you love what your doing it might be illegal, so watch your back.

RE: pickle bottle ? - 9/9/2006 8:42:56 PM    tigermaple1855   Posts: 88 Joined: 10/18/2003 Status: offline Hi Kyle,  Any more info on the green pickle with the anchor?  I can't find the aqua cloverleaf pickle on e-bay.  I've sold a few in aqua and they seem to price out between 90.00-135.00.  Good luck.  Dean (in reply to peltster) Post #: 12

RE: pickle bottle ? - 9/9/2006 8:47:40 PM    earlyglass   Posts: 341 Joined: 12/21/2004 Status: offline Kyle, About your cloverleaf pickle... it is much more likely that it was produced at Keene, NH, and not Stoddard. Stoddard did not make aqua glass. Here is what the Stoddard ones look like. The form may be the same, but that would make sense since Joseph Foster purchased many of the molds from the failing glasshouse in Keene when he started his venture in Stoddard. Well, good luck with your listing!  Mike Attachment (1) (in reply to peltster) Post #: 13

RE: pickle bottle ? - 9/10/2006 8:10:25 AM    peltster Posts: 307 Joined: 8/12/2006 Status: offline thanks for the info,  will have to change the description,. it is listed under aqua clover leaf pickle bottle, thanks Kyle the dark green with the hearts and anchor is listed in Kovels pricing guide, although I could not get a picture, from the guide. $330 (in reply to earlyglass) Post #: 14
