    1/1, 1870’s Quart Beer from Ypsilanti, Michigan

    Wonderful color and “whittle” marks. That would look good on anyone’s table or shelf. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Cool but broken

    Tumble it to make into beach glass, real period beach glass sells like hotcakes on eBay and Etsy. If you could figure out the grit to make it matte just like bleach glass you’d have a constant source of income. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Just amazing, can you imagine when this cobalt jar was manufactured what $36,000.00 would buy at the time of manufacture back then? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    AMBER MASON MIDGET on feeBay

    Thanks for posting that picture. That color is quite impressive. Was this considered a “one off” or were there others in this light amber run? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    carnival glass coca cola bottle

    This Coca Cola does have very “carnival glass” qualities, opalescence usually causes some cloudiness. Your bottle is fairly transparent.

    carnival glass coca cola bottle

    Omg, aren’t those really something. The opalescence on the Barrel shaped bottle is outstanding! To me, because I collect for aesthetics and in certain veins of bottle makes( bitters, whiskey, flasks, demijohns, gin, embalming fluid, quilted cobalt poisons ) a bottle that has a high degree of...

    Attic Finds

    This bFound this in my liquor stash last night. I got this from a 96 yr old lady that had passed when I emptied out her rental. The triple sec was still great. It’s quite a heavy bottle with the “fed law prohibits sale or reuse” warning. So I was also trying to decipher the age on the bottom...

    When I was a kid in 1962, I lived in a rural town in northern Nevada, 5000 people, there was an “abandoned “China town” block with ramshackle houses decaying. The interior walls had newspaper dated 1901 on the walls nailed or pasted to them, my mom pointed out the date, she was a fascinated as...
