    Etched blown glass vase with white enamel.

    Hi All, It has been a while since I last posted but I'm very curious about this vase. I recently picked it up from a collection of primitive American antiques. While I do not recognize it, something about it feels very old. It is beautiful. It is blown and the glass is light, fairly thin...

    Real? Early american blown sugar jar?

    Hi All,I need some opinions on this beautiful piece of glass. It has all the signs of being early american, and it doesn't have the color of a jamestown repro, but I want to know if it's real before I start getting excited. The lid is a set in flanged cover (similar to plate 31 in the 1950...

    CAUTION REPRO WAR MILKS & SIGNS ON EBAY

    Just a heads up to everyone, bought 2 war milks and 2 posters from moantiques2012 on ebay- bought them on a whim since they were priced right but was disappointed when they arrived since they are all fakes. The soda posters he's selling are modern reprints on new paper with new ink, but...

    Interesting Ink?

    Hi All, I haven't been able to find any info on this bottle, has anyone seen it before? I'm assuming it's an english ink (just has that look w. the burst lip), but could it be an actual mini lamp? It is a light green color and near mint. Thanks in advance!!!!

    Scroll flask with applied collar

    Hi All, I don't have any historic flask books and I'm having a difficult time determining what type of flask this is: It has an applied collar, which I believe is different than most of these flasks, and a different design on the bottle, including a star. I'm curious on the specific name &...

    Questions about a full labeled french poison

    Its been a while since I've been on here... Hi All. I've never owned anything like this. Anyone have any ideas what these are made of? They seem pretty wicked. I really like that the label has old stamp marks on it and some hand written marks. Anyone ever ship anything full like this? Is...

    What is a realistic price on this english black glass??

    Hi All I picked this up under a year ago and absolutely love this bottle. However, it is time for me to move it on and put the money from it toward an ENGAGEMENT ring. I've started selling off bits of my collection, and will likely be selling a good portion of it except for the meds/locals &...

    Some budapest & NY color

    Went backpacking this weekend but passed an "antique" shop on the way out. Someone had turned their house into a permanent yard sale. The woman selling the goods was super nice and she had some really interesting things. At first I didn't see any bottles... but it never hurts to ask. I really...

    Nisco soda advertisements Norfolk VA

    Thought some people on here would be interested in seeing these, plus I've got a few questions. I believe they are newspaper cut outs glued onto cardboard. One has a spot that the paper can be lifted up and text is on the back. All from Norfolk VA documenting the choice of the name, and the...

    Bottle for Epackage & Vet stamps

    This first bottle is a flask I found at a sale this weekend. The pic below is for epackage. Its a H. Munzer & Son's - 199 and 201 Market st. Epackage has a similar flask (amber) but it only says H. Munzer, and 201 Market. I assume this one is from a bit later as the sons started to take over...

    FIRE BOMB! Help!

    Hi all, I picked this up this weekend - Honestly I didn't recognize it as a fire bomb until someone else suggested it. It was painted red, but this has worn off, as has the spot where the name was painted on (I can see some vague symbols that resemble letters, but nothing legible). It...

    New locals and a gem

    I've been swamped lately with work, but have been taking short breaks to get out and do some light digging/searching. I've found a nice ACL dump, and another huge dumping area spanning 1870s-1910. I haven't had the time to get deep into either dump yet, but I've pulled a few bottles from random...

    NJ Sodas from a loaded dump

    Now that the snow has melted I've had a chance to get out and search for some dumps in my new town. Unfortunately nearly every bottle was busted and there were lsot of NYC/NJ ACLs that I have not seen before. Was only able to do a little bit of digging as the sun was going down, but I saved...

    An odd beauty

    Anyone have any ideas? It was marketed as a "saddle bottle" - It has a huge applied ring, and is pontiled with lots of imperfections. It's a dark purple and stands about 16". Looks great in the sun, but is it something other than a modern flower vase made old world style? Thanks!

    Looking for a longboard surfboard!

    I'm trying to find get a new surfboard by summer, preferably over 9ft. Anyone have one laying around they would like to sell me, or trade for some bottles? It doesn't need to be in good shape, just not broken in 2. Figured it was worth a shot! PM me if you're interested!

    An odd one

    Hi all, I picked this up at a flea market this weekend, and I have no clue what it is. The bottle is 3 sided. Each side is 2" wide and the bottle is 8" long. The neck is thick and does not sit centered in the bottle.The top mimics a sheared lip but it seems that a lot of work has gone into...

    New town, new bottles

    Just last weekend I moved into a new apartment in an old town along the Hudson River. Its a nice old town with some great bottle potential between the old development and old money in some parts. Come spring thaw I'd like to enlist some help to dig around here... lots of riverside houses from...

    What is it?

    I replied to a craigslist add about a "very rare and unique bottle" and was sent the picture below. Any ideas? I'm not going to get it, but I'm still very curious what it is... Something for chemistry? A bird feeder?

    What's the difference?

    Hi, These appear to be the same bottle to me, am I missing something? Both have the same shape/style/height and even the same (m) on the base. They even have basically the same listing, and both sellers have a great feedback history. Case 1 Case 2 Is this just one of those ebay cases...
