    Sister's Hospital Pharmacy bottle dug in NY

    The form is typical for Citrate of Magnesia, as for rarity/value I don't know. Sean

    Hard to read mark, Glasgow pottery

    Can anybody read (or more likely recognize) this? The middle of the mark is Glasgow and I believe the bottom says Pottery works, but I can't read the name, McBundy's maybe? Sean

    Crude Cobalt Charles Ellis Philadelphia

    Yup, that's the one. Those are supposedly found in cobalt too but I've never seen one.

    Crude Cobalt Charles Ellis Philadelphia

    You're probably aware of the common citrate bottles with that name, but I've never seen a cobalt rectangle like this one. Nice bottle! Sean

    Albany bottle with chain links?

    It has a bunch of very large brass fittings still intact and it would be a shame for those to meet up with an idiot with a crowbar :)

    Albany bottle with chain links?

    Thanks Jeff. Unfortunately I feel obligated to shut down this site as a bottle diving destination because nearby there is a sunken ship put together with these:

    Albany bottle with chain links?

    Can anyone tell me about the bottle on the right? It's an early smooth base with Albany and then either an infiniti symbol or two chain links like a sideways 8. They look more like chain links. Found these yesterday, the Steven Sweet's Infallible Liniment is really early. Thanks, Sean

    Anybody know about cannonballs?

    Not dug, just found. It was in the Connecticut River near Northampton, MA. It's a very old area that has been settled since the 1650s. This thing was in an area that had probably recently been exposed because it was downstream of a big tree snag that had caused a current eddy and cleared off all...

    Anybody know about cannonballs?

    That shinyness is from me hacking at the rust with a screwdriver. When found it was a complete mass of black rust, what you see here is what emerged after I attacked it. My damn hands are still as black as they used to be back when I still fixed my own cars :)

    Anybody know about cannonballs?

    Thanks for all of the replies. I'm tending to agree that it's probably not a cannonball. I took some better measurements and pictures and they seem to rule out a 32 pounder, which is really all it could be if it was a US cannonball. The hole is weird because it expands inside but not very much...

    Anybody know about cannonballs?

    I think that's what this is but I don't know. Any clues appreciated. Sean

    Orignal Budwiser Bottle ...anybody have one of these?

    It's Satterlee and Mory, Fort Edward NY. There's a crock with the same design on fleabay right now with some information about the maker: http://cgi.ebay.com/Satterlee-Mory-Fort-Edward-Stoneware-Preserve-Jar-/140405665377 Quoting from the auction: "This is the stamp of George A. Satterlee...

    Orignal Budwiser Bottle ...anybody have one of these?

    Here it is pre-cleanup with the other litter!

    Orignal Budwiser Bottle ...anybody have one of these?

    I came across an old Anheuser-Busch bottle today (along with a pontiled SS Fitch and a beautiful jug my buddy found). Is this one worth anything? It's probably about 1910 I'm guessing, early tooled crown top.

    cigar bottle

    Well, slightly singed anyway.

    cigar bottle

    I don't think so, they're fairly common. I had one some years back that I got from an antique store for $15 and when I put it on ebay it got 14.99 with 2 bids, so I pretty much got burned on that one :)

    Old cup or bowl ?

    C'mon, whadya want to live forever? The skeezier the river the more likely it scared away the other divers and the bottom is littered with treasure. I've gotten so I don't think is was a good dive if my gear doesn't come out carcinogenic and there were no brushes with high explosives [;)] Sean

    Old cup or bowl ?

    Something about that makes me think it was a small cream pitcher, I think because of the interior decoration. I agree with Wayne on the age, late 18th-early 19th century, good spot to sniff around some more for sure. Sean

    Large green bottle, any info?

    I have its twin in yellow, which I paid $29 for at an antique store in the 90s. I agree that the value on yours today should be about $75-125. Sean
