    Looking for NJ bottles and Colored Blobs

    And here's my fledgling colored blob collection. Only started very recently so it's barely a collection yet haha. Looking for any colors I don't have, ideally in good condition.

    Looking for NJ bottles and Colored Blobs

    Haven't been around here in a while... I'm doin OK by the way! Just poppin' in to say I'm still looking for Essex County bottles like in my signature, but I've also started collecting colored unembossed blobs. Here's a picture of my best recent Essex acquisition

    Umbrella ink bottle

    It's pontiled. Anyone who's seen it in person can attest to that. It's just not an "obvious" type of pontil, the glassmaker was very skilled and was able to leave little evidence of it.

    Spell Check???????

    I agree with Jim, depends on your OS and what browser you're using. I use Chrome and I have the spell check that does the squigglies like asterisk mentioned. It's nice, it's a lot of trouble to use other kinds.

    Gettysburg Katalysines an Monograms

    I see no problem with botlguy's post...? [8|] It's in the same auction as those Gettysburg bottles, free advertising and discussion shouldn't ruffle anyone's feathers...

    Friday's privy from hell

    Thanks guys. And yeah tigue, we are wondering where the rocks came from! They aren't native rocks. These were shale and river rocks I believe, while sandstone is the normal local rock. They were definitely brought in from somewhere else. Why, who knows.

    Friday's privy from hell

    One other bottle worth mentioning... But it's not with me right now, I'll post it in two weeks when I have it back. It's safe to say it's the best bottle of the dig though!

    Friday's privy from hell

    An early bottle from a local druggist, J. P. Scherff of Bloomfield. He started business in 1875, this broken med is probably from less than a decade later.

    Friday's privy from hell

    A very early jar lid, probably to a lightning jar. Has a bunch of 60's patent dates, the latest is 68.
