RE: Nice Early Baby Bottle
In the big hole there went a cork, I think? I am not sure but it makes sence to me. Does anyone have a ball park value on an item like this?

I need some help with this jug. I picked it up a few years ago and can't find anything about it. Part of the problem is, I can't really make out the name on it. In script it looks like it says the following: DRURY & I J A M S, Groceries, GAY & HIGH ST, BALTIMORE, MD. It stands about 7 3/8...
RE: Nice Early Baby Bottle
Hi CW,
The only book I ever saw this bottle in was dated like 1948 and I don't remember the name of it. I do recall that they said the circa was around 1820 or there about. They also said it might be English. Can you see a kid chewing on that glass nipple? Wow...
Hi
I just thought I would share a baby bottle that I have had for many years. I haven't seen many like this in my travels. Imagine how many kids threw these out of there cradles. Maybe just once and gone.

Here is a picture of the jar. One of the members here is going to send me a lid. Now all I have to do is find a closer for it.

Hi,
This is the first time I am going to try to post pics here. Hope it works. This is the F.H. Heckings Mineral Water New York bottle. It is a really dark green in color. It looks black until you hold it up to the sun. Super condition. It holds about a pint and stands 8 1/4 inches tall. Any...
Hi,
The wife has my camera so I can't post pic for a couple of days. The bottle measures 8 1/4 inches tall, deep emerald green not olive green. I thought it looked to small for a quart so I filled it with water. Holds around 16 ounces. Hope this helps.

Well, that would be nice Woody? Thanks for looking for me. I couldn't find anything in my books either. But most of mine are on the old side.
