    20 sided Food Bottle?

    I suppose, to some extent, beauty is in the eye of the beholder. I have gotten the most pleasure showing some of these bottles (1930s-1950s) to my wife's grandparents (in their 90s). The land I'm finding them on was the "Home Place" of my wife's grandmother. It's been really cool being able to...

    20 sided Food Bottle?

    Small glass vial with cork

    1940s fits with the rest of the bottles I'm finding. Plus, it definitely looks machine made. It's one of the coolest ones I've found here. I wondered if it was used for something small, like nitroglycerin, or something of that sort? Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk

    Found this today under a 1930s tenant house on my property. It looks machine made, but there are no markings on it. Any ideas??? Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk

    Help with bottle ID (lowercase "a" makers mark)

    Could be... I've found Fitch's & Vitalis tonic bottles in the same area. This is all New to me. I don't think I've found anything of monetary value, but learning about how the tenant farmers lived in the 30s - 50s has been fun and enlightening. I'm sure I'll have many more questions, as I have...

    Help with bottle ID (lowercase "a" makers mark)

    Dug this bottle from my property. Other bottles dug from same area date 1930s-1950s. Dimensions are 8 in high, 2 in deep, 3 in wide. The only markings are what appears to be a lowercase "a" at top and the number 87 at bottom. Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk
