Information please

Hi sue,welcome.I'm not as savvy on glass as many others on this site are that can help,but they need a little more than the top of the bottle.A pic of the base and whole bottle usually is a good start,otherwise the glass is so clear and pristine it could be an attic find pattern mold or a pier...

What is it?

You're right.Ran thru too fast,no screw top,too narrow a base.Bout the right size for an oil lamp of some kind.

Coke Swastika watch fob.

I,ll have to side with Mr.Bear here.You really think the end of WWI,the Treaty of Versailles, or the great depression didn't help set up a nation to be led astray?

What is this?

Hi Spirit.Drift pin punch.L C is correct.It was and still is used in machine shops as an alignment tool and a punch for driving out spring pins that join two pieces of metal or machined parts together. Couldn't put an age on it'some things are timeless in their design.

London Dry Gin

Hello,and welcome.There are better people that would know the value here,but I truly dig the label and embossing helps.If there isn't any embossing that says FEDERAL LAW PROHIBITS..... then that helps with price also.

Brass Bowl or pan possibly late 1700's early 1800's?

O.K.,I'll bite.I believe it was clad in leather once and hung down attached to the side of a stirrup on a saddle or a shin gaurd the rider wore above his boot.My best guess.

Anybody heard of this Bottle Maker

Could it be Eagle Bottling Works, Wash.,DC? From what I can find on this,it could be a Rhode Island bottle before the company moved.
