    Common or Not?

    Gunsmoke, I gotta agree with you on the Ebay thing. Blows my mind when I see "Rare Clorox Bottle" or similar in the title of the listing. Half or better of the stuff these people are listing as rare are nothing more then 22 targets.

    Common or Not?

    I bought a "Callender's" Bitters years ago that according to Ring's "For Bitters Only" was unique, only one known, and I figured I had it. When I got the thing it was a real let down. Clear glass, turn of the century looking, no character. When I sold my collection in 1989 nobody would give me...

    Royal ruby

    Hi Caretaker, you talk about digging lots of booze bottles, I agree. In the early years of my town there was a lot of iron mining and lumbering going on around the area. The dumps from those camps contained almost exclusively whiskey and beer bottles while the farm dumps had a mix of bottles...

    Just Feel Like Talking

    Mike, I'm right handed, if you stand on the left side and me on the right maybe we can make some progress. Only trouble is I think you live about $600.00 worth of gas away from me.

    VAPO-CRESOLENE CO PAT'D U.S. JUNE 1895 ENC

    As I remember the only cresolene bottles I ever dug or saw were clear. It's a long time ago so maybe I'm wrong. I never kept any of them because they weren't valuable.

    Saratoga

    What was embossed on it and what color was it? Don't know how to get a hold of him anymore but there's a fellow named George Waddy in upstate New York that can tell you all you want to know about SAratoga's

    Royal ruby

    I found one of these in the Long Lake dump in the Adirondacks years ago. While I was down picking it up a bear came up behind me and my friend we made a high speed exit back to the top of the dump with the bottle. I always heard they were keepers and I knew Schlitz put them out but never knew...

    Wanted - Dyottville "Patent" Whiskey Cylinders

    Thanks for the responce. I do have a Drake's 4 log, I believe it's a D110 and it's all I have left. I sold all my Bitters because I became a sick man when I was collecting them. I spent way too much money. Had to get out before I became homeless if you know what I mean. The reason I still have...

    VAPO-CRESOLENE CO PAT'D U.S. JUNE 1895 ENC

    Carmo, Vapo-Cresoline was like modern day Vicks Vapo rub. There was a small oil lamp with a metal dish on top that you put the vapo- cresoline in and lit the lamp. The heat from the lamp apparently filled the air with the vapors from the product which I think relieved congestion. I have a...

    One more...

    This is the bottle that got me started in bottles back when I was about 13 in the late 60's. I was out in the woods with my dog and came across a dump. A Warner's was laying face up on the ground. The embossed safe intriqued me so I stuck it in my back pocket (they fit nice). When I got home I...

    Hi, I've got 2 steel cans, (somewhere at my mothers house) that are wood grain on the outside. I 'm pretty sure one is Shaeffer, I think the other is Rheingold but not sure. A buddy of mine found them in the wall of an old house under renovation. He traded me the cans for a full bottle of beer...
