About half of my digging is done in Pottsville although I live like two hours from there. They were established in 1829 and there first bottle was an unmarked pontiled wine bottle which I have dug pieces of. Here is a pic of some of their older bottles which I have dug there. Two aqua ponys and an amber ladies leg squat marked DGY&S on the base. Although mine is a mold blown crown top, I have dug the amber blob but I didn’t get it on the pick.    ~~Tom Attachment (1) < Message edited by Bottleman -- 5/11/2006 11:25:59 PM > (in reply to bottlediger) Post #: 5

RE: yuengling bros beer - 5/12/2006 11:23:24 PM    Bottleman Posts: 851 Joined: 9/3/2004 From: Central Pennsylvania Status: offline Madpaddla, Yuengling made a lot of different varieties of bottles throughout the years. The ones I pictured above are some of their oldest but they also made tall blobs, mold blown scroll beers and lots of different machine made ones. Also milk bottles…. that’s right, milk bottles. During prohibition, the way they survived was through selling milk in bottles. I have a picture of one below. If they hadn’t sold milk, they may not have been Americas oldest brewery. The pony blobs run for like $50 on ebay and the tall blobs go for a little bit more. The Yuengling milks go for around $30 or so but you can pick up the machine made ones for a few dollars. If I ever dig a third Yuengling pony I would defiantly sell or trade it to you.    ~~Tom Attachment (1) (in reply to marylandbottler) Post #: 9
