    Cheap way to clean and polish bottles.

    Pour just a little bleach in the bottle. Cover the top with aluminum foil and secure with a rubber band and let it sit for a day or so. The fumes from the bleach will release a lot of the stains.

    Emerald green thing

    This is something we found. It's very heavy, very old looking, and really neat. On the bottom it is embossed - CHLORIDE ACCUMULATOR THE E.S.B. CO. First one of these I have seen. Kinda looks like a minature bird feeder

    For Annie44

    Nice collection. Were these tumbled? What are the colors of the two on the far right and far left? Olive or citron? I have one that looks olive indoors and citron outdoors.

    Anyone know what this is or what it was used for? Found it diving near old ship wreck.

    Please help identify

    I'm just learning about bottles and identifying them, so I'm not sure. If it were machine made wouldn't the seam go to the top?

    Please help identify

    Thanks. I think it probably is from Norway. I tried to use a language translator on the web sites I found. Said the language was Norweigan, but couldn't translate it at this time.

    Please help identify

    I found this bottle in our storage shed yesterday. It's 9 1/2" tall, a very light olive color and has FREDR.HVEDING OSLO embossed vertically. There are what appears to be measuring marks on the side. Side seams stop at the neck. I suspect some type of medicine bottle. I searched it online...

    TO CLEAN OR NOT TO CLEAN?

    Thanks for all the feedback. I left the oyster shells on the bottle. I just set up a display case this weekend with a nautical theme. Just wish there was a way to polish the glass so it would display better.

    Stumped on this one

    I was going through the collection last night and found this bottle. Searched for hours online and the only thing I know for sure is that West Hartlepool is in England. Any history on this bottle would be appreciated. Front embossing: IMPERIAL JOHN BARKER NORTHEASTERN HOTEL WEST...

    Quart South Carolina Dispensary

    Thanks for the info. Still not sure about the bottle. I'm at my office now and don't have Huggins book here, but I believe all of the quart SCD's have glassmaker marks. No marks on this one.

    Quart South Carolina Dispensary

    I have a quart SCD bottle that is #303 in Huggins book. There is no glassmaker's mark on the bottle. Huggins refers to a "Flaccus mark". Does anyone know what that looks like?
