I had a really great time at the show. I didn't bring enough cash for what I wanted so I got a chance to relax look at all the different bottles and meet some people. The price rang was good and my brother picked up some really nice bottles. The GPS tried to send us up a dirt road so maybe I...
Justglass that flask did turn out nice! I think I feel another road trip comming up. I want to make an offer on that brant decoy, plus the thought of maybe finding another old medicine bottle.
Kip that bottle is a beauty, I like how crude it is. I also like color and the base on it. I don't know a lot about the Dr. Townsend sarsaparilla bottles but I've never seen one with a base like that. I'm sure there are a lot of people on this site that can help you out. I really like the pics...
Nice group of bottles, I really like the crude glass in the DR. JACOB'S BITTER. My brother and I hit the shops yesterday and couldn't find a thing. Finding a bargain like that is what really makes your day!
I would have had no problem paying a $100.00 either. After seeing them at bottle shows I never thought I would own one. I did tell my wife if I sold it I would split the profit with her, maybe thats why I don't want to see it go. Just kidding, I really like the glass!

Eric, the dumps around where I live have been pretty much picked over, I have to learn how to find new ones. I do have a metal detector I can use to find dumps just under the surface, it's just taking the time to research old maps. With arrowheads we look for plowed fields around water, then we...
Thanks everyone I thought it was a nice find even though I wasn't the one who found it. My brother and I will start hitting shops in Arundel and by the end of the day we will end up in Northwood N H., we won't even stop for lunch. We always like stopping and seeing Jeff at his bottle shop in...
I finally got my camera back so I thought I'd post some pictures of my new bottle. My wife and I were on vacation in late october, we hit some antique shops and I couldn't find a thing. We were going to take a drive up the coast of Maine but she wanted to hit a couple more shops in the area we...
I don't pay the early bird price to get in, I would rather put the extra money into a nice bottle. For me the price of 15.00 or 20.00 dollars to get in will make the difference of buying a nice bottle or going home empty handed. I think a lot of nice deals go down before they even open the...
Justglass I like the King Of The Blood bottle you bought, it has really nice color. We spent 2hr and 40 min to get there and I came home empty handed. I did get to see some really nice glass and talk to some dealers I know. The bottles I saw at a good price were bottles I already had. The ones I...
Justglass, thanks for selling me the Dr Pierce's medicine bottle, it's really crude with great color. I know you bought it for your own collection. Maybe some day I'll have a bottle you'll really want. I like those road trips to Maine they're a lot of fun, you never know what your going to find...
