    Medicine or cure bottle?

    Ground, as in rough appearance? Its smooth I would say.

    Cobalt Poison

    question for the diggers: what other artifacts come with a bottle dig? Arrowheads? Dinosaur bones? Stash of old coins? I take it you would use a long thin rod and probe the ground for picking out buried bottle. How do you detect a buried if not that way. I,ve never been on a dig or seen...

    1877 Mayonaise bottle

    I didnt see what you were referencing to but, could it be a British made bottle? I didnt show the last words on it too well. It says New York. Did the Brits sell bottles of mayonaise to New Yorkers in 1877 ?.

    Is this this the right place...

    Bent amber bottle

    All I can do is guess what was in it. Clorox...bleach? Insecticides? Anyway, If you grabbed it in the middle of the night, sleepy, you,d know it was not for human consumption as per its shape. I know that that is precisely the reason for many odd shaped bottles. To let whom ever picks it...

    Rawleigh`s Trademark bottle

    Yes, This one doesnt look too old really. But, from the one I saw on EBay, the label looked fairly old. Early to mid 1900s maybe.

    How do cracks effect value?

    Could that cracked top be melted back into shaped. Seems logical that with enough heat that crack would dissapear. If done properly that is. Is that possible. I,m sure someone somewhere has tryed this. Any info on heat repair of cracks in bottles?

    Holy French Elixir Batman

    I think from what I read, it was mostly alcohol with other ingredents like the Rawleigh`s concoction.

    Not-so-old wine bottle

    It was one dollar at a garage sale. I like the shape so I,m getting my bucks worth out of it. [;)]

    Bent amber bottle

    I guess this was for some chemical or poison but the shape seems to suggest it was. I see no marks that would say it was melted or was post-molded to the shape it has now. No embossing. I guess its an ABM bottle judging by the bottom. It stands nine and a half inches high.

    The spigget (sp) valve is rusted and wont turn.

    Rawleigh`s Trademark bottle

    I saw another one on EBay with a label stateing Anti-Pain Internal. Mostly alcohol with other ingredents mixed in. Asked the seller if there was a date on the label. Seller came back with ` I cant find a date on it anywhere.` Its eight and a half inches tall.

    1877 Mayonaise bottle

    The pics tell it all really. Also the purple color of the bottle suggests it was irradiated or heated to give the color....perhaps. It stands five inches high. The top shows saw marks where probably a broken top was `fixed`. Still an interesting piece.

    Amber medicine bottle.

    This one stands six and a quarter inches high. Embossed near the top is: Dr. J.O.Lambert Limited Montreal-New York. The bottle shows lots of air bubbles in the glass. Seemingly of a crude manufacturing process. The bottom shows a number 8.
