I recently found a colorless glass bottle, about 6.5 inches tall that is imprinted "Diers & Ulrich" on one side of the bottle shoulder and "Carbonated Beverages" on the other side of the shoulder. The bottle has a bumpy texture in the middle and it is imprinted "Colon" at the base. An internet...
Hi. I found this bottle diving yesterday. I am not sure how old it is or if it is worth anything, but I really like it. It is approximately 6 inches tall and three inches wide at the base. On the front it says "Mount Vernon Pure Rye Whiskey" and on the back it says "Hannis Dist LC Co. Full...

Yes, we get many from the West Indies but because this area had immigrants from all over the world we get a large variety from Europe (particularly Spain and England), Australia, South America, the U.S., and the West Indies. I just Googled "Kananga Water" and there was a lot of info on the uses...
After doing a little research on the net, I found that there was a cologne called Kananga Water which was used to cast spells in Jamaica. Since I am also in the Caribbean and at one time in this area they imported Jamaican workers to work the banana plantations I am pretty sure this is what the...
I found this bottle while diving yesterday. It is approximately 5" tall ans about 1" at the base. There are some letters along the shoulder, not all of which are clear. What I can make out, it looks like "KANA_GA" (the underscore represents a letter I could not read). There are some letters on...
Today I found this unusual bottle while out for a dive. It is approximately 6 inches tall and about one inch at the base with a very narrow opening. Any idea what this might be? Thanks!
I found another interesting bottle while diving this morning. It is about 5 inches tall and is embossed "BURNHAM'S BEEF WINE & IRON"
I found a little information on the product on the internet, but nothing about how old the bottle might be.
I found this bottle diving this morning. It cleaned up pretty nicely but I have no clue on how old it is or what it contained.
One side says, "ELIXER DEPURATIF D CAZENAVE, PARIS" and the other side says "EXIGER LA SIGNATURE".
It is about 8 inches tall. Any one know anything about this...
Sean,
We have great reefs, but it also a great place to find bottles in the shallow water. Be sure to come by the shop and say hello. Are you with ITEC (they bring lots of Bio students)?
Best,
Jon
Anyone have any insight on this ceramic jar? It is approximately 6" tall, 3.5" at the base, and has a very narrow opening. Any info would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks for the information on the bottle. Any idea how old it is? I found this one at a dive site that I usually find bottles from the early 50s, so I assumed this one was early 50s, but any further info would be appreciated.
Thanks for the info. I'm not really concerned with value, I just like to learn the history and to collect them for my own enjoyment. There is something really cool about finding all of these old bottles scattered on the bottom of the ocean where I live..
I found this bottle on a dive yesterday. The painted label has been worn away, but I can make out "Orange Crush" and "Company Bottle" inside a diamond and more interestingly "Esta Botella Protege Refrescant Y Delicado Sabor de La Fruta" which loosely translated means this bottle protesct the...
I found this bottle on a dive yesterday. On the front it says "California Fig Syrup Co." and on the side it says "Califig." Anyone know how old this bottle is or anything about fig syrup?
