Great find! I also have found one or should I say half of one as it was broken at the hole. My son has a small tear drop one that my dad found on the shore of Lake Champlain on the Vermont side. I was there when he found it and gave it to him. It is red in color and has single hole and is in...
Got this bottle a few weeks ago in Maine from a friend who purchases dug bottles from diggers and resells them. I like the embossing and had never seen it before so I purchased it from him. Can't find anything on it. Looks before machine made with seam stopping at neck. Does anyone have any info...
I think when the format of this web site changed was a big down fall. Seem to lose a lot of bottle people and it's really never been the same since. I guess some people don't like change. Just my opinion. I admit that when I don't see many new daily post I tend to wander. Still this is the site...
Think I've been at that dump. First Dump I dug was a late 1800s /early 1900s. My son and I were pulling 30 plus bottles a day until we hit the sheet metal. Tried in vain to move it or dig under it. We finally gave up. Bothers me to know we left some bottle there. Hope they were common.
Picked up this old black glass bottle awhile back. I've seen a number of these bottles in the past but never with a lip like this one. I'm guessing age to be around 1790s to 1830s. Was wondering if anyone else has seen this style and if it is English.
Thanks for the info. I picked it up for $30 with plans to resell it. I'm not a can collector so it will go on ebay soon with hopes of making a few bucks or breaking even. It isn't full and is empty.
Picked this up the other day while picking for bottles. Don't know much about it but it was priced right and I have never seen one like it before so I had to have it.
