Not sure. It was in the same dump as the Old Castle Whiskey, Florida Water, and the Lydia E Pinkhams bottles. So maybe as old as them? They are from the late 1800s, early 1900s right?
Some of my winter finds. I’m no huge collector, so I’m pretty stoked to add these beauties to my collection. All of this was in the same area, including the Native American artifacts. Any ideas on what they were used for?
There is definitely a good amount of very old glass scattered around, but also more modern stuff as well. I also wanted to ask on here if anyone has probed for privys, and if so, what is a good starting point to do so. I’ve never done it nor seen anyone do it, but am very interested in trying it...
I recently moved into a very old house, built sometime in the late 1800s. While doing yard work and gardening, I’ve been finding glass buttons, old insulators, and lots of old broken glass, so I know there are treasures to be found. This little bottle was laying completely exposed in a gopher...
So, I found the amethyst, un-embossed one and purchased the Restorff & Bettmann. I’m not sure what either bottles contents were or how old they are. Please share any info
I found these bottles(along with many others from varies dates) in a dump that seems to have no bottom. At least I haven’t found it yet. The deeper I go, the older they seem to be, and these were fairly deep. Any info would be awesome.
