Good to know, coldwater diver.

It seems I understated the number of glass works in early Stoddard -- there were five! I didn't mention the Joseph Foster works in South Stoddard . . . I couldn't find a name for those earliest works founded in 1842.

Anyway, I photographed another bottle I think was blown in Stoddard (or possibly Keene). This one is olive-green rather than olive-amber, but both colors are reported in Stoddard glass. It's easier to see the micro-bubbles in the green glass for some reason.

And Still More Old Jars

Harry. Love those greens, are they also pontiled, as they look like they may be??

Thanks for the feedback, Andy! Two of the four in the recently-posted images are pontil-scarred . . . I've notated the images to indicate which is and which isn't. In the image below, the two black jars are pontil-scarred.
