recent finds - 10/11/2008 8:41:34 AM    druggistnut Posts: 370 Joined: 1/7/2006 From: Otisville, Michigan Status: offline Michdigger has been on me to post some finds, so I'm breaking down. I just find the process a bother, but I sure like reading everyone elses posts, so I guess I should contribute, too. The Dambacher & Ludovici beer is the only one known, according to all the beer gurus here. They ran a saloon in East Saginaw from 1889-1893. Ludovici then opened a grocery and Dambacher became a teamster beer wagon driver. The Bartlett's is the odd one out. I see Reggie Lynch has another Bartlett's on his web site, but it's a really beautiful barrell. Kind of odd shapes and expense, for shoe dressing bottles. I believe this one dates really close to about 1870, but someone correct me, if I'm wrong. Wish I knew how to thread photos together, so I could put them on one post. Enjoy.

RE: recent finds - 10/11/2008 9:37:43 AM    druggistnut Posts: 370 Joined: 1/7/2006 From: Otisville, Michigan Status: offline undamaged pint blob, Krantz Brewing (backward embossed "Z"), Findlay O. I really like the emblem. It is embossed with hops/barley with the initials K B C in each plant, and the words "purest rock water finest barley selected hops" around it. I've dug these before, but only in toloed crowns.

RE: recent finds - 10/11/2008 10:11:24 AM    druggistnut Posts: 370 Joined: 1/7/2006 From: Otisville, Michigan Status: offline The bottle is embossed unusually. On one side of the bulbous section, it reads "press sponge here." The other side is "Patent applied for." On one curved side it reads "H.A. Bartlett & Co Philedelphia"  The other side reads Bartlett's Dressing. Pretty nifty, I think. Attachment (1) (in reply to druggistnut) Post #: 17
