You wouldn't, per chance, have a link to that reference, would you?

Found this as well, damaged, but still pretty cool; was wondering if this could be repaired? It's a pontiled Northrop & Lymans Canadian Hair Dye:

Yes this could be repaired. The bigger issue will be matching the look of the bottle since all the ones you are finding have a great look to them

is interesting that its a Canadian hair dye , so it was most likely only being sold north of the border . I don't know if it could ever be repaired

I have checked spots in rivers and near old hotels , although I know some of these places have been checked by actual divers before so perhaps anything old is long gone and I'm just finding the more recent stuff

Well, that's great news! Could you point me in the direction of such an individual?

I would find it difficult to find them snorkelling, as they often blend in with their surroundings; time to get that scuba license, RCO!

Look around in lakes and rivers near locations of old hotels - this has worked for me!

That pipe is a smoker in more ways than one! Fantastic piece of art!

I find pipes too when I dive for bottles, 99% of mine come from rivers but occasionally I get ones from lakes too.
