    This one is for Uncle Bruce / The Beer Dude

    I found this Pottery Bottle on Vancouver Island years back. The locals say it is an 1850's bottle.....The embossing : Bavaria Brewery Victoria V I and on the reverse the "thumb print" Doutton Lambeth London. The bottle is quart size and mint.

    Nice early Sacramento Cal Soda......

    Found (13) of these sweet Cal Eagles. I 'd post a picture of the graphite pontil, but you can see it through the side of the bottle. This bottle was never cleaned and is as found condition.

    I like old sealed bottles

    It's the nature of the beast ~ most sealed wines are thin & consequently broken. I've found several wine seals....seals only. Seals and the base of the bottle are the thickest parts of the bottle and survive. This lovely wine was found with all of it's crudity and a great seal. The date is...

    Here's a couple to drool over.

    I found both of these bottles in an ancient Western dump site, nothing but 50's & 60's glass. It is absolutely amazing how much Eastern Glass came West.

    The Phoenix Bourbon

    Always loved the Phoenix Bourbon.......especially the applied top. I have found bunches of J.F. Cutters & J H Cutters ~ It was time for a change. Only one bottle that day, but the quest for a Phoenix rose from the ashes. Here's the applied top.....and a tool top I purchased much later. I'm not...

    So, a few years later you could hear the hoof beats of race horses being spurred on.

    Over my digging & diving career I was lucky enough to find these three 1860's London Jockey Club Gins.....Always a treat. The yellow one is the best that I have ever seen. It has a glass thread that wraps around the interior of the bottle. All are in mint condition.

    And then there was sunshine
