All/Anyone -
Does anyone have a true embossed tipper ink?
I think tippers are great looking pieces, though not too many types out there...
But I've noticed that every one I've seen has been unembossed. Do embossed tippers even exist? If so, does anyone have a pic to share?
Thanks...
Just wanted to share this little fact I read this morning:
On this day, January 11, in history:
1878 In New York, milk was delivered in glass bottles for the first time by Alexander Campbell.
Can anyone suggest a website or resource on how to get pre 1872 US Patent info?
I have a bottle and I'm trying to find out what it was used for. It's info and pic is poseted in the "Unanswered Questions" forum, under the thread " any ideas on *this* one? pic included... "
I've done some...
Anyone have any ideas on what this bottle is?
It stands about 5 inches tall, the base width and length are both about 3 3/4 inches.
The weird thing is that the neck is off set! On one face of the neck is embossed:
"L D. PATENTED JULY 4TH 1871" Which is both cool and frustrating because...
I picked up this "CHEMSLFORD SPRING CO." bottle at a going out of business antique sale the other day. What I put in quotes is embossed on the top, and below that is also embossed "REGITERED". On the bottom is very faintly embossed the number "962".
Has any one seen this bottle before, or...
I thought this site needed a thread about ink bottles. Any and all information about ink bottles is welcome: your favotie piece, a great find, known history about designs or companies that have made them, digging hot spots, etc....
