    Tumbling bottle with crack

    Privy Probe

    There are quite a few privy diggers on this forum, and, if you're going to the Baltimore show on Mar 7, you should be able to find them there. I believe there is going to be a booth with them plus lessons on how to use them.

    Large green bottle, any info?

    Wow. What a great Demi...kudos on the photography and well placed text on photos. I've seen some in less appealing shape at antique shops for $125, so you can get a good idea from that and all the other great input here. It's an eyecatcher alright. Really nice...

    Bottom Embossed Letter "D"

    Dan, I agree that the Glass Makers Factory marks site is comprehensive, I've use it many times myself. You might also consider the resources found at: http://www.sha.org/bottle/makersmarks.htm. I've found them to be most helpful as well. Happy hunting!

    is it worthwhile to have this 1 cleaned ?

    Hello...I'm new to the forum...my name is Cindy. As soon as I saw that bottle it said "Clean me"...It's unclear from the bottle photo, but on the bottom is it wear marks or lots of little bumps in a circle? I was thinking sand pontil.
