    Newfoundland bottle collection

    This Newfoundland collection is mainly English bottles. The rest are novice grade stuff. There are a couple from The Rock but i think you will have a tough time selling this stuff,sorry my friend.

    I’m speechless

    Some people REALLY have no business trying to "restore" stuff. What a joke that bottle is. Probably the last post he or she will; leave here. lol

    I have found a few thousand different bottles I was just wondering what would be the most valuable ones to find if anybody can help

    Bottle collecting is a very complicated subject. Basicly its colour,size, and manufacture. Some can be all three. The hottest is always poisons,sodas,fruit jars,ginger beers.Medicine stuff usually not as collectable But not always. Say you bought an early soda from the 1860's. Is it pontiled...

    Just a thought.

    Abel De Silva was one of the "Dream Team,I have bought bottles from at least three of the team. It was a once in a life time dig. He is on eBay his site is the deSilva Code I think. He has stuff on and nobody bids i hate trying to sell anything really good on eBay.

    J Jellis - soda bottle Brantford Ont

    Its rare for sure. Listed in a book I have from 1975 as rare. First one I have ever seen .but machine crowns really don't sell for big money. too bad. I really think the next big collectible in bottles are the applied crowns they are well over a hundred years now.

    Just a thought.

    There was a huge dig in the mid 80's at the Dome site in Toronto. Six guys dug around 10000 plus early blob sodas and beers. The market in Ontario sodas tanked for a long period. i got back into it in2012 and it seems to be quite healthy if the bottle is fairly rare. They were known as the dream...

    Tumbling an iron pontil

    Glad to hear it was helpfull. I have had pitiful luck tumbling flint glass. It is way harder then the early stuff. You and I are about the same timeline as far as collecting.I also have a tough go doing quarts. had some success but its a trial.
