I found one of these bottles at a local antique shop and was wondering what would be a fair price to pay for it. It is currently listed for $65. "YOUNG'S BOTANIC BREWERY LTD. embossed beer bottle Hanley, "H" on base Any feedback would be greatly appreciated!
Bear,I believe that it is the remains of a wax seal. If you look closely at the photo of the neck of the 1st bottle there appears to be remnants of a wax seal on it too. I'm still trying to find information on the City Bottling Works but haven't had much luck so far. Regards,John
3. Kaolin pipe bowls with no visible markings.[attachment=20150901_184539.jpg] 4. An 1870's ink well embossed J & I. E. M. patented Oct. 31, 1865.[attachment=20150901_164649.jpg] [attachment=20150901_164735.jpg] I'm going to take a break for now and will post additional bottles later. Regards,John
Here are a couple of my non-bottle finds to finish up for now.1. 1920's condum tin from the 3 Merry Witches company.[attachment=20150901_185734.jpg] 2. Sterling silver container from Gorham Mfg. Co., Providence, Rhode Island (match safe or snuff can?). Based on the hallmarks it was made sometime...
I believe this is a New York beer bottle. It is embossed S. Liebmann’s Sons Brewing Co/SLS/Registered on the front of the bottle.[attachment=20150901_172717.jpg] [attachment=20150901_172937.jpg]continued on next post...
Not sure if this is a soda or a beer. Bottle is embossed with City Bottling Works/Tiffon O. on the front and W. Mc C & Co. on the base of the back.[attachment=20150901_165705.jpg] [attachment=20150901_165739.jpg] [attachment=20150901_165806.jpg]continued on next post...
My oldest SS double dot pepsi cola bottle from Fayetteville, NC. Thought it was odd that to find a crown top bottle with a cork stuck inside.[attachment=20150901_173818.jpg] [attachment=20150901_173849.jpg] [attachment=20150901_173920.jpg]continued on next post...
I finally have some time to post more photos of my creek finds as promised. I'll start with my black glass. These are the only two complete black glass bottles I have found to date and don't know very much about them yet. Black glass #1 [attachment=20150901_170332.jpg]...
Sorry! I didn't have access to my photos when I posted earlier. Here are some pics. [attachment=20150903_163657[1].jpg][attachment=20150903_163900[1].jpg][attachment=20150903_163949[1].jpg]This reads G5266 at the bottom of the bottles.
I haven't given it much thought. How would I go about finding a professional and what is the cost? Most of what I find has that water tumbled texture to some extent. Would this shape be considered a 10 pin style or something esle?
