    First bottles in a while, a soda and a OP medicine (or utility ?)

    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...

    lets play the forum's favorite game: NEW or OLD? Open pontilled free blown pitcher

    hey everyone. long time no see. would love some input from our resident experts on this piece i found.

    Stoddard, or not stoddard?

    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...

    Some case gins

    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.

    Can anyone tell me about this jug?

    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...

    Trying out the new poll feature! Northern sodas or southern sodas?

    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...

    Early nyc beverage bottles

    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...

    Fantastic Early Green M. B. & Co N. Y.

    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...

    Two pontilled John Cables

    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...

    American pontiled soda database down?

    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?

    What are some of the rarer/rarest new york whiskeys?

    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!

    Some pickups from the Saratoga show

    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...
