    Rust on large jug with painted image

    Been a while since I've posted much but with the cold setting in as well as the boredom, I was wondering, is there any way of getting rust off of something like this without damaging it? Should I bother cleaning this just simply because of the risk of damage? Any opinion is appreciated, I've...

    Mother's junk store find

    I kinda thought it may be a bit new looking to be anything of any value but I don't know a whole lot about bottles before 1880-1900. Anyway, it has a pontil on the bottom of it and it looks like it is the same style of bottle making as I'm used to seeing in older ones. I just think the condition...

    I was searching random bottles from my state (New Hampshire) on E-bay and I came upon this "RARE" one...apparently I've gotta tell my cousin because he's got a few of theses...actually, so do I! [:D] [;)]...

    Recently dug local Blob

    This may be more common than I'm hoping but I haven't been able to find any online. I was only able to find out a bit of information over Google describing the bottle, and the contents, (Ginger ale). I dug this blob top "Aetna Bottling Co Concord, NH"... (Just showing the clasp and size...

    Green Coca-Cola Berlin NH question

    Recently hit a place up north with my cousin and came across this straight green Coke bottle embossed with "Coca-Cola Berlin NH". I was curious if this was actually a Coke bottle, or some other product by them? I saw one of them on E-bay for $60 labeled as Scarce, but I never know with E-bay...

    Clear poison jars

    I was a bit curious what these jars may have held. They don't give much in the way of information besides saying "Poison" one vertically, one horizontally. Any info appreciated, just my first poison embossed jars.

    Green Julip question

    I have had a question nagging at me for a while now... Are green colored, embossed Julip bottles harder to come by? I haven't been able to find many examples online, let alone local ones, but I had found one from Manchester, NH in one of our local digs. Could be a noob question, but I've gotta...

    Fun digs today

    Went out digging today with my Cousin, Chris "Glassgopher721". Ended up going a bit off track and found a different cellar hole than we were planning on hitting. Good thing we stuck there because I ended up finding my best finds so far! My first local porcelain sign, and my first Jug find...

    P.Harrington, Manchester NH

    I wasn't sure how old this one was, (before or after 1900). I've seen a lot of P.Harrington and sons bottles, but not many without the sons, and all of the ones that I have seen didn't say "Registered", or "This bottle not to be sold" in the same places, or at all. I assume it's not a...

    Questions from the glassgopher hole

    Went on a bottle dig with Glassgopher721 in one of his honey holes and had a couple of questions on a few bottles. I was wondering if anyone had any information and/or a picture of a full labelled version of them... The First Bottle all I could make out of the label was "Sunny Side" and...

    What's left of a Model A or T

    Was checking out nearby a cellar hole in the woods, and came upon what looks to be an old model A or T frame and part of the body. (you may know more than I) After this I started digging by the cellar itself, and ended up with 5 horseshoes within about 45 min Just figured...
