    Bottle dumps in CT

    Hi Strapside, Haven't seen one of those in a long while. They're generally non-specific. I'll keep you in mind if I do. --CT Len

    Real or reproduction? Value? Union Shield Clasped Hands Flask Dark Amber

    Yes, that flask is most likely a repro. No ware. However you'll probably still get about $15. on a good day. Hang in there, a gem is out there somewhere waiting on you.

    welp, I just had literally the most successful day in bottle hunting I've ever had.

    Moodorf, WOW! Truly, a day to remember! . ..Glad to see you've done your hw with the background history and maps. Those homeowners may become friendly over time. Paying off in the long run. In any case, this area is your baby for the foreseeable future. Have fun with it and keep us posted from...

    Any Idea ??

    I agree--not common, interesting on more than one level. Might have been produced for the discerning wine drinkers. --I'd guess late '50s-'60s.

    Whiskey bottle used as a syrup bottle early 1900's

    I believe DD's just came out with a maple syrup coffee combo. I don't think anything with maple syrup surprises me. Then or now. It is one of my "secret ingredients" for hotdogs+ beans, chili, etc. Now if we can talk DDs into adding that other previously mentioned component-- I'd have to buy...

    I Swore I'd Stop Collecting

    My display area is small. I still love those that are there, although there are many contenders to such a spot. I used to dust seasonally but now only as needed. Yes, I have final say over when that is and please don't ask for a pic.:rolleyes:

    I think I did pretty well for five dollars

    Hi Hunter, I like the Nujol. They came in different sizes. Found a few on a dig last year. They're not only uniquely shaped but the glass was a little thicker too, making them survivors. Mine were mostly '30s- '40s. Not worth a whole lot but the name alone is interesting and fun. Congrats on the...

    spring soda bottles meriden conn

    Yes, the Hutches are both cool and tough. They were the toast of the 1880s-'90s. :cool: ..And the bread + butter of many collectors over a century later. ;)

    19th Century Cobalt Glazed Ceramic Inkwell

    Yes, they both are eye catching. Nice finds, but I see no evidence of ink staining. There is the possibility they were never used for that purpose. ..I'd guess and say they might be part of a young girl's collection. The creamer might only have landed near the Oriental styled piece but were not...
