    Klein Bros. & Hyman KT&K Jug, Vernal Remedy Sample Bottles, and a Mystery Piece

    Here are some of my latest stuff. I haven't posted in a while, but I'm still collecting. Here's a KT&K porcelain whiskey jug with purple Klein Bros. and Hyman Spring Lake graphics. Still has some of the gold leaf left on the lip and handle. I love the snake handle on all of the KT&K jugs...

    Recent Antique Mall Finds

    Some of my recent Antique Mall deals. I love going to antique malls to find bottles because a lot of the dealers have no idea what they have. Most of the time, dealers don't think bottles have value or don't know they have value, so they end up selling the bottles they acquire really cheap, no...

    Glass Vase (old?)

    First off, I don't know where else to put this since it's not a bottle, but if there is a better place I will move it. I recently took a trip to Canada and popped in some antique stores along the side of the road as I went. I got some great deals on some great bottles, including a clear...

    Catch Up

    I haven't posted in a while, so I'll just dump all my finds in the past few months here. Nothing special, just some bottles I picked up just because I thought they were cool or were just cheap. I'll post pictures of some of the bottles in sunlight when I get the chance. Rheinstrom Bros Eagle...

    I'm Stumped (Washington/ Gen. Taylor Flask)

    I just found this, and bought it out of curiosity. I just don't know if it's a reproduction or not. It looks like the identical mold from here, but it's a smooth base and has textured glass, as if it were a more modern reproduction. I don't know if the textures were intentional or not, like if...

    Buffalo N.Y. Coca-Cola Bottle

    Picked this up for a sweet deal. I love the style of the early generic, slug plate straight sided cokes.

    Stout Dyer & Wicks

    Can anybody tell me more about this bottle, or give a date of it's creation? At first I thought it was a bitters or a some kind of spirits, but I googled and found a previous post on here that it was some sort of sauce bottle. It's got a crude applied top, and lots of unevenness and bubbles. The...

    Freeblown?

    It is very crude and uneven in shape, with a chipped all around lip. It looks like there's some sort of pontil on the bottom but I'm not sure. Can someone put an approximate age on this bottle? I think it's freeblown...

    George Washington/ Gen. Taylor Flask

    Please bear with me, I'm going completely by memory of what I saw, so here it goes... It appeared to be a historical flask, the front with a portrait of George Washington, and the back with General Taylor. It had a light aqua tint to the glass, and had a tapered lip with a crude applied top...

    Flea Market Finds

    Football season started for me last week, but I'm still hitting flea markets and antique shops on the weekends, even though I'm really tired and sore. These were some recent finds, I got lucky and scored some Michigan bottles, but nothing local to me. Everything is pretty common- Spun-in-mold...

    Nice Early Straight Sided Double Dot Pepsi Cola Bottle From Birmingham, ALA

    There's a little cloudiness, case wear, and minor flea bites, but no no chips, cracks, or any other major damage, would look great if it was tumbled and cleaned. The embossing is a little weak, but still bold enough to see the classic, Victorian style Pepsi logo from around the turn of the...

    Help on a Drakes Plantation Bitters Bottle

    This bottle is really stumping me. I recently found this bottle at an antique shop, and I'm not sure if it's the real deal or not, I included some crappy cell phone pictures, and hopefully a good description will give you a good idea of the bottle. Alright, so it looks to be hand blown, just...

    Straight Sided Coca-Cola Bottles

    Just some I have collected over years at bottle shows and dug up the 2nd Jacksonville in the south one year. Some are really common, but I have a few that are kinda rare. My prized possession is the Wheeling, W. Va. bottle, has a chip, but it's still a very nice S.S. coke.

    Pontil Bottles

    I got both of these at a garage sale, I hate it that the G.W. Merchant has a broken top, but I did pay .50 for it so I shouldn't be complaining, I'll replace it someday with a complete one. I got the Spalding's Glue for .25.
