In researching an old strap side hotel flask I noticed a faint name on the lid. Researching that name I found this. The Henry M Goble site was at 73 Murray Street so it moved once HM took over. The hotel and the two glass houses were all within a few blocks of each other. I’m guessing this...
Try googling Hebrew to English. In some sites, like Chinese, You can draw with your cursor the word to get a translation. When I saw the first word I thought it said Poop!
I’m not surprised it’s from a famous restaurant as I acquired these from the same collection. All famous hotels, restaurants. The Arlington is still in Hot Springs, Arkansas. Thanks again-you are the man of the day!
You are awesome! I was thinking Paris because it is so fancy. I will be doing lots of research now thanks to you. I appreciate you (and all the others that have helped me out over the years.) If I find out more, I'll post an update.
This little bottle has 3 colors of enamel painting reading “TWO DRINKS”. It’s 4 1/2” tall with a max diameter of about 2 1/2”. My question is this: would this be called a miniature backbar bottle?
I was able to acquire a honey colored one with a kicked up base (not sure what you call it, a post cup base maybe?) in a 4 piece mold design. I got the amber version, 2-piece Bimal also. Happy day!
I have one of those also. I think it is from Belfast. There’s a Ross’s Belfast on Etsy that looks almost the same. They’re asking $69. Mines in the wine rack on a hutch cabinet.
It looks like a sand Pontil to me, but, I don’t see too many of them. Let’s see what others have to say. Nice looking bottle. Go here for a great article on pontils.

Nothing is a huge amount of money. I’d bet $10 is tops in a few jars and the brown beer bottle. I’ve given lots of flowers as gifts using old bottles as the vase!
Showing you all my newest, and oldest embossed Utah bottle. About 5” tall with a Square body. I love the snake wrapped around the Rod of Ascepius! Here’s a photo of them I found from the historical society (the UDSH) from 1860 in front of their crude business. This one is c. 1870 I.M.opinion.
I got lucky and got this, what I think, is the earliest Utah oil can yesterday. From either 1908 when the company was founded or 1909 when it was sold to UTOCO. This may be the only known example! I had goose bumps for an hour!
