Hey Taz....
Did you notice the gold blob appears to be the head of a man?...or I am I just seeing things? Appears to be a bearded man with some kind of helmet on....kinda looks like "Neptune" the god of the sea...??? Am I just getting old or does someone else see him too?
Keep on...
Hey Taz...
I agree with Gunsmoke...run..don't walk to your nearest "Antiques Roadshow" and get it appraised and documented...they will tell you if the letter can be authenticated.
Nice find...
Keep on roadshowin'...

Hey Taz...
What are the dimensions? Could you post another pic with something common for size comparison?
Whatever it is..it's interesting..maybe a door knocker plate for Somebody named Mark the II? [&:]

Hey friends....
I was browsing through one of my favorite antique stores here in town and I spied this strange looking bottle/jar(?)..looked like an ink bottle about the same size as the familier screw lid kind you remember back in the 50's and 60's (if you're old enough to remember the 50's...
Hey Mike_at_sea...

Regardless of what they are/were/willbe used for...they are pretty...display them...go for the bookend thing...put some good classic sci-fi books between them (like Heinlein, Asimov, or Bradbury)...
Keep on seaing...

Hey Trying....
It is surprising what you'll find in bottles sometimes...I was in a "Mom and Pop" corner grocery store one time a long time ago and I got to talking to the owner (the Mom) about old bottles and she brought out this strawberry soda bottle from the factory with a couple of...
Appears to be a green apple with a big bite out of it...[;)]
I go along with the inkwell theory and possibly for use on a ship so it "rocked' with the motion of the ship....???? What do I know anyway..I collect 3-in-1 oil minatures.[:D]

Hey Brian...
Excuse my ignorance here..but your dragger seems to have the grill of a Maveric, the rear end of a Duster...and the overall look of a Chevelle..???
Help me out here...of course I'm a "roundy-round" driver...you know... Go Fast...Turn Left. That's why my wife says I'm so dizzy...

P.P.S. I guess you got three sleepers in there too...those clear ones are kinda camouflaged by the backgound... how about some single pics of those too? I like the clears and light green tints..They show the "bubbles" and imperfections so much better I think...

Hey Brian...
Nice collection of bitters! BUT...what's this about race cars??? I am an old stock car racer myself...in fact I just brought home my newest car this last weekend and my wife threatened to kill me until I told her a friend was going to scrap it ( it needs some TLC but it's a...
Hey Norm...you forgot about us Baker Cityites who collect 3-in-1 bottles and green soda bottles that traveled all the way across the U.S.[;)]
