It does get you to thinking. Why the 6 sides on the shoulders? It appears to me that it was made that way to lay on the flat sides of the shoulders. I could be completely wrong too. The glass is pretty heavy. The openings are the same size on each end. And why one end with a ground lip and...
I have this jar that was dug years ago and I recently unboxed it. It's only Embossed PAT APPLIED FOR
The jar has a lid on each end. Top is a smooth lip. I say top because the embossing would be read correctly that way but i'm guessing this jar would sit on its side. Bottom is a ground lip...
Thank you! I'm going to have to look through some of my other beer bottles. I'm seem to remember having an embossed bottle of this same brand. If I recall, it was definitely bigger though.
I have this Crown pint sized jar. Red book 686. The only pints listed are aqua, clear, SCA, and apple green. Looks more yellowish to me. Would this be considered sediment amber? I appreciate any input. Thank you.
After you mentioned not many bubbles in the glass i grabbed it and looked closely. There is actually a lot of bubbles. They are just really small.
In addition, the thickness of the top is about an 1/16". There is also some very light exterior scratches that have to be looked at very close to see.
That sounds like very good possibilities to me, especially medicine. Opening is only 3/8". The bottle is very light weight. I don't even like to
handle it much for fear of breaking it. lol
Very interesting. Thank you so much. I am very interested in learning about the pontil era. I am including some photos of another bottle i have with a pontil mark. Can you please help me date this one? It's small. 5.5" tall. Light aqua in color. Any insight I can get is much appreciated...
Newbie to the site so I thought I would start with this one. I have had this blue bottle that i picked up many years ago at a yard sale. Purchased just like it looks now. Cracks all through it except for shoulder up. Even with all the cracks, it still feels smooth on the outside. Any thoughts...
