    E. Hartshorn & Son's bottle

    This is one of my favorite Hartshorn bottles I dug years ago. It is bim 3 inches tall and all S's are reversed. Bottle maker must have had a bad day. From the smaller size I would guess it was a sample bottle. Anyone have or collected one with these with the same errors ?

    Hilton's jar

    Does anyone have info on this jar/bottle ? It is embossed " HILTON'S PAT MAR 10 1868 " I dug it here in Bath, Maine years ago. I don't collect canning jars but it could be a wax seal type jar. Looks late 1800's due to whittle surface and bubbles. Cliff

    Unusual Bromo - Seltzer bottles

    Haven't posted on here for a while so thought I would post a couple of photos of some odd ones I dug years ago. One is a teal blue Bromo - Seltzer the other is a usual Cobalt color with BROMO-SELTSER. Looks like they tried to make the S look like a Z but that didn't work well !!!

    Tornado in a bottle

    My son gave me this pontiled ink he dug a while back. The outside was really sick but you could make out this string of glass inside. Finally decided to get the outside tumbled hoping the inner surfaces were in better shape. Turned out great. Interesting glass tornado inside. Cliff

    Glass Flowers?

    A friend of mine dug several of these glass items from a dump near Kennebunk.Me. They are very thin and about 2 in. across. There are ridges on both top and bottom and appear to have been pressed in a mold. It appears that an iron pin was attached to the center at one time. I have heard they may...
