    Intracoastal bottle find

    L.M Green was a pretty prolific producer of patent medicines in NJ. The clear and aqua L.M Green side embossed meds are pretty common up here. Based on the flora in your photo it seems that the bottle travelled quite a distance from Woodbury NJ though!

    Latest Mineral Water (It's Blue!!!)

    Found this at the Manville Bottle Show over the weekend. I'm not usually the one to dabble with high end bottles, have always been more of a local bottle kind of guy, but I just couldn't pass up the opportunity to buy this. Embossed J&A Dearborn, New York on the front with Mineral Water D This...

    Blob top madness and others

    Thanks again! Nevadabottles- Yea it was quite a shock! Made my day for sure MuddyMO- WM H Earl was a very large bottling firm. Their bottles are abundant in NJ, although I've never heard of one travelling as far away as Missouri. That's pretty amazing!!!!

    Blob top madness and others

    Thanks everyone! And Spirit Bear, any scroll bottle I have ever seen is hard to come across. There are 2 quart scroll blobs known from NJ and a scroll hutch is known from Orange NJ.

    Blob top madness and others

    Although I'm LITTLE late due to a very hectic month, I thought I would upload my finds from the Batsto bottle show. As usual it was a terrific show for buying and selling, which easily allowed me to cover the cost of my purchases which is always a positive[:D]. Highlight of the show was a dealer...

    NJ Patent WONKY BLOB

    Thanks everyone! Cowseatmaize- Once I get a few hundred more Haley bottles I might have to resurrect the brewery! Although finding just one more of these is extremely unlikely.

    NJ Patent WONKY BLOB

    Ocean Grove had its regular postcard yesterday. Luckily buried beneath one of my friends tables was a box of bottles. Picked up 3 local blobs, a Belmar milk, and THIS Embossed C.C Haley, Celebrated California Pop Beer, Newark NJ. The stopper was only used by C.C Haley and is extremely...

    Shupps Grove finds

    Decided to go to the Shupps Grove Bottle Fest last weekend. I Haven't been to the show in 2 years and thought a visit was long overdue. I was truly surprised with the amount of New Jersey stuff that was at the show! Was able to pick up some nice blobs for the collection as well as an extremely...

    new bottle pickups

    The steamer shape is a popular term for them in the Baltimore area, but it can be classified as a steamer just about anywhere.

    new bottle pickups

    Sand Pontil, It does have a very unique shape. Always called it a "pony blob" but I use that term broadly to describe anything between a hutch and a blob that isn't too early. I kinda like the squat-hutch better though, it could be called a Squatch blob!

    new bottle pickups

    Thanks Jim, I appreciate the variety, although I have no self control when it comes to local bottles too. Recently I have been buying more blobs and less milks/meds so I don't completely bust the bank. And bottleworm, mostly commons like Bromos, Dr.Pierces, Hoods Sarsaparillas, Maltines, and...
