Lipton, Newell & Trusdell Binghamton N.Y. paper label, McTighe Grocery Company Binghamton N.Y., E-J Workers Johnson City Endicott N.Y. Old Homestead Brand for International Coffee Co. N.Y. These had been tied together and sewed into an ottoman I found at an estate sale. Paints generally in good...
Haven't been digging or buying, while I'm home for spring break I checked the local antique shops in town. they usually never have anything good but this time there was some O.K. stuff.
The open pontil i got for 5 bucks and the other one I swapped a box of brownie cameras for along with some...
hey everyone. long time no see. would love some input from our resident experts on this piece i found.
Points for it being old: heavy ring of wear on the base (which i tried to capture in the pics), a couple of loose pieces of iron/slag in the base, light scratches on the body, water pours very...
Seller described this as stoddard, have no clue/don't collect stoddard glass so I can't tell if it is or isn't. Don't particularly care either way, it's a neat bottle. Cool offset lip, nice color, 3 piece mold, pontilled, pretty neat. I didn't know pontilled bottles could have that little center...
Nothing fancy, no pontils or nothing, just like getting differently sized ones. Got the middle one last week, it's got a blob top which I haven't seen before.
Picked some stuff up today, a copper pitcher, a Barr bros wholesale liquor dealers strapside from Brooklyn, and this jug. I'm not a jug guy but I might be now. Anyone know what this pattern of glazing is called/how old it is/where it might be from?
Got some marbles recently, know nothing about them. Does anyone see anything interesting? First pic is the biggest ones and the most interesting looking ones (to me) and the 2nd is the rest of them. Also what should I be looking for in the future? I know lattice core marbles are good, other...
I'm not a jar guy, but my mom is. She got these 2 today, would like to know more about them (year manufactured etc) and how much they're worth () so I told her I'd post them for her. Any jar guys mind filling me in? Thanks
Pretty sure this is a brand new feature, or at least it wasn't as easy to do before as it is now. Pretty simple question: what region has the best sodas to collect, the north or the south? There's great states for collecting sodas in both, Georgia, Massachusetts, the Carolinas, NY off the top of...
Here's my collection of early nyc beverage bottles so far. I've probably posted about all of these at some point but here they are all together. Nice to feel like you're adding to a grouping when you get something instead of just throwing money into an endless pit of things you like. Side note...
Looking for bottles that say "M. B. & Co NY" Specifically looking for the one with 1861 in big lettering across the back, the one with the address 97 west 35th street in aqua or other colors besides green, a mint 145 west 35th street, or any others I don't know about.
Just got this, might be my favorite bottle in my collection now. Pictures really don't do it justice. Almost mint condition, a nice early font, great embossing, tons of bubbles, a grooved donuty lip, great color. Somehow this thing isn't pontiled, it must've missed it by a year. I have another...
Around a month ago I bought the bottle on the right because it was an NY bottle, had an interesting shape (my favorite thing to collect) and was pontilled. The same seller then put up another john cable, and I had to have it. Not sure how many other john cables are out there, but I think I'll...
Went to use it a week ago and it's giving html errors, which I would guess means the server service lapsed. Anyone got an archive or a workaround or something? Or know the owner?

Why is this specific coke hutch so desirable?
I have a very fledgling collection of NY whiskeys I've mostly dug. It's the type of bottle I could see myself collecting for a long time. Anyone got any/know about any hard to come by whiskeys from NY? Particularly square ones. Just curious!
Went to the Saratoga bottle show in Ballston Spa. It was nice meeting some people in the hobby that I've heard or read about or talked to over email, and it was cool to see some great glass in person. I'm on a perpetually tight budget while I'm going through college but I still grabbed a few...
Looking for all bottles from Kings Park, included but not limited to P. L. Conlon (in both clear and aqua) Geo Cusick, Henschel's Kings Park Hotel, J. N. Burr, John Mack, E. F. Keane, and Keane & Henno. Especially looking for a John Mack in good condition, or any bottle that says kings park that...
